Darker Skin

Famous quotes containing the words darker and/or skin:

    So they, who climb to wealth, forget
    The friends in darker fortunes tried.

    That I should ape the ways of pride.

    Some day I will go to Aarhus
    To see his peat-brown head,
    The mild pods of his eye-lids,
    His pointed skin cap.
