Dark Match

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or match:

    Of a truth, Knowledge is power, but it is a power reined by scruple, having a conscience of what must be and what may be; whereas Ignorance is a blind giant who, let him but wax unbound, would make it a sport to seize the pillars that hold up the long- wrought fabric of human good, and turn all the places of joy as dark as a buried Babylon.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    Poor Desdemona! I am glad thy father’s dead.
    Thy match was mortal to him, and pure grief
    Shore his old thread in twain.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
