Famous quotes containing the words opening and/or night:

    “Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise.”
    —Bible: Hebrew Proverbs, 6:6.

    “Because of something told under the famished horn
    Of the hunter’s moon, that hung between the night and the day,
    To dream of women whose beauty was folded in dismay,
    Even in an old story, is a burden not to be borne.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
