Famous quotes containing the word darkness:
“I always seem to have a vague feeling that he is a Satan among musicians, a fallen angel in the darkness who is perpetually seeking to fight his way back to happiness.”

And falling with my weight of cares
Upon the great worlds altar-stairs
That slope thro darkness up to God,”

“A Dungeon horrible, on all sides round
As one great Furnace flamd, yet from those flames
No light, but rather darkness visible
Servd only to discover sights of woe,
Regions of sorrow, doleful shades, where peace
And rest can never dwell, hope never comes
That comes to all; but torture without end”
—John Milton (16081674)
