Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or knights:
“and as you read
the sea is turning its dark pages,
turning
its dark pages.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“The threadbare trees, so poor and thin,
They are no wealthier than I;
But with as brave a core within
They rear their boughs to the October sky.
Poor knights they are which bravely wait
The charge of Winter’s cavalry,
Keeping a simple Roman state,
Discumbered of their Persian luxury.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
