Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or mercury:
“No, they are dark and wrinkled and hairy,
caves of the Moon . . .——— And when a
dark humming fills us, a
coldness towards life,
we are too much women to
own such unwomanliness.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“The mercury sank in the mouth of the dying day.
What instruments we have agree
The day of his death was a dark cold day.”
—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
