Famous quotes containing the words fear of, fear and/or dark:
“It is the perpetual dread of fear, the fear of fear, that shapes the face of a brave man.”

“Thir dread commander: he above the rest
In shape and gesture proudly eminent
Stood like a Towr; his form had yet not lost
All her Original brightness, nor appear’d
Less than Arch Angel ruind, and th’ excess
Of Glory obscur’d: As when the Sun new ris’n
Looks through the Horizontal misty Air
Shorn of his Beams, or from behind the Moon
In dim Eclips disastrous twilight sheds
On half the Nations, and with fear of change
Perplexes Monarchs.”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
“The linnet and the throstle, too, and after dark the long halloo
And golden-eyed tu-whit, tu-whooof owls that ogle London.”
—Alfred Noyes (1880–1958)
