Famous quotes containing the words night, love and/or affair:
“How insupportable would be the days, if the night with its dews and darkness did not come to restore the drooping world.

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Andrews: Do you mind if I ask a question frankly? Do you love my daughter?

—Robert Riskin (1897–1955)

—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
