Nights

Famous quotes containing the word nights:

    Time flies like an arrow; the days and nights alternate as fast as a weaver’s shuttle.
    Chinese proverb.

    You still whispered you would not die.
    Yet in the nights I heard you cry
    Like a whipped child;
    William Dewitt Snodgrass (b. 1926)

    I knew that I had seen, had seen at last
    That girl my unremembering nights hold fast
    Or else my dreams that fly
    If I should rub an eye,
    And yet in flying fling into my meat
    A crazy juice that makes the pulses beat....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
