Darkest Star

Famous quotes containing the words darkest and/or star:

    “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)

    “Find out the peaceful hermitage,
    The hairy gown and mossy cell,
    Where I may sit and rightly spell
    Of every star that heaven doth show,
    And every herb that sips the dew;
    Till old experience do attain
    To something like prophetic strain.
    These pleasures Melancholy give,
    And I with thee will choose to live.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)
