Famous quotes containing the words demon and/or chaos:
“The greater part of what my neighbors call good I believe in my soul to be bad, and if I repent of anything, it is very likely to be my good behavior. What demon possessed me that I behaved so well? You may say the wisest thing you can, old man,—you who have lived seventy years, not without honor of a kind,—I hear an irresistible voice which invites me away from all that.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“A face peered. All the grey night
In chaos of vacancy shone;
Naught but vast sorrow was there—
The sweet cheat gone.”
—Walter De La Mare (1873–1956)
