Darkest

Famous quotes containing the word darkest:

    The darkest pit
    Of the profoundest hell, chaos, night,
    Nor aught of blinder vacancy scooped out
    By help of dreams can breed such fear and awe
    As fall upon us often when we look
    Into our minds, into the mind of man.
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    Race prejudice is not only a shadow over the colored—it is a shadow over all of us, and the shadow is darkest over those who feel it least and allow its evil effects to go on.
    Pearl S. Buck (1892–1973)

    Our purses shall be proud, our garments poor,
    For ‘tis the mind that makes the body rich,
    And as the sun breaks through the darkest clouds,
    So honor peereth in the meanest habit.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
