“As if waking up from a heavy sleep, he raised his head and saw above him the black sky and the blidingly shining black disk of the sun.”
"Словно пробудившись от тяжкого сна, он поднял голову и увидел над собой черное небо и ослепительно сияющий черный диск солнца."
Mikhail Sholokhov, The Quiet Don

“A machine gun crackled for a bit — and fell silent, the disorderly, insane shooting flared up — and died down, and the slaughter came quietly splashing around.”
"Пулемет потрещал — и смолк, вспыхнула — и угасла беспорядочная, шалая стрельба, тихо заплескалась рубка."
Mikhail Sholokhov, The Quiet Don

"One must respect black. Nothing prostitutes it. It does not please the eye and it awakens no sensuality. It is the agent of the mind far more than the most beautiful color to the palette or prism."
