We like the dark, said all the dwarves. Dark for dark business! There are many hours before dawn. J. R. R. Tolkien The Hobbit, or There and Back Again darkness
Roads go ever ever on, Over rock and under tree, By caves where never sun has shone, By streams that never find the sea; Over snow by winter sown, And through the merry flowers of June, Over grass and over stone, And under mountains in the moon. Roads go ever ever on Under cloud and under star, Yet feet that wandering have gone Turn at last to home afar. Eyes that fire and sword have seen And horror in the halls of stone Look at last on meadows green And trees and hills they long have known. J. R. R. Tolkien The Hobbit, or There and Back Again Bilbo Baggins
