Dark Man

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or man:

    will your eyes lie in wait,
    little field mice nestling on their paws?
    Perhaps they will say nothing,
    perhaps they will be dark and leaden,
    having played their own game
    somewhere else....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    The writer’s language is to some degree the product of his own action; he is both the historian and the agent of his own language.
    —Paul De Man (1919–1983)
