The bright day is done, and we are for the dark

"The bright day is done, and we are for the dark" is a line from William Shakespeare's play "Antony and Cleopatra". This quote is spoken by Cleopatra in Act 5, Scene 2, as she prepares to take her own life following the death of her lover, Mark Antony. The line captures the sense of finality and inevitability that pervades the play's tragic conclusion.
