Lonely Nights

Famous quotes containing the words lonely and/or nights:

“The great ship, Balayne, lay frozen in the sea.
The one-foot stars were couriers of its death
To the wild limits of its habitation.
These were not tepid stars of torpid places
But bravest at midnight and in lonely spaces,
They looked back at Hans’ look with savage faces.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

“Wild Nights—Wild Nights!
Were I with thee
Wild Nights should be
Our luxury!”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
