Dark Squared Bishop

Famous quotes containing the words dark, squared and/or bishop:

    Why are a lady’s thighs always cool? That is, said the monk, due to three causes for which a place is always naturally cool: primo, because water runs all the way down it; secondo, because it is in a shady, dark and obscure place, where the sun never shines; and thirdly, because it is continually fanned by the winds from the breezy hole.
    François Rabelais (1494–1553)

    Dreams are toys.
    Yet for this once, yea, superstitiously,
    I will be squared by this.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    In the pink light
    the small red sun goes rolling, rolling,
    round and round and round at the same height
    in perpetual sunset,
    —Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)
