Love prefers twilight to daylight. [ Oliver Wendell Holmes ]

Slowly, slowly falls night's curtain
Over all the wide-spread land;
And the angels of the twilight
At the gates of heaven stand.
Lo, they come, a band of angels.
Clad in robes of tender gray;
And before their gracious presence,
Fades the sun's last lingering ray. [ C. E, Charles ]

Now came still evening on, and twilight gray,
Had in her sober livery all things clad. [ Milton ]

Age is opportunity no less
Than youth itself, though in another dress;
And, as the evening twilight fades away.
The stars are seen by night, invisible by day. [ Longfellow ]

There is an evening twilight of the heart.
When its wild passion-waves are lulled to rest. [ Fitz-Greene Halleck ]

Twilight (of dawn) is the lot of man in every relation. [ Feuchtersleben ]

The twilight that surrounds the border-land of old romance. [ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow ]

As the evening twilight fades away, the sky is filled with stars, invisible by day. [ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow ]

The darkness of death is like the evening twilight; it makes all objects appear more lovely to the dying. [ Richter ]

Many have gone in quest of light and fallen into deeper darkness; whereas childhood walks on secure in the twilight. [ Friedrich Schiller ]

Suspicions amongst thoughts are like bats amongst birds; they ever fly by twilight; they are to be repressed, or at the least well guarded, for they cloud the mind. [ Bacon ]

There are no unions that have not their dark days; but, when we have loved each other, we remember it always, and those sweet remembrances, that the heart accumulates, survive love like twilight.
