Famous quotes containing the words fade and/or black:

    One by one they appear in
    the darkness: a few friends, and
    a few with historical
    names. How late they start to shine!
    but before they fade they stand
    perfectly embodied,
    Thom Gunn (b. 1929)

    th’ other black and grave, wherewith each one
    Is checker’d all along,
    Humilitie:
    George Herbert (1593–1633)
