Famous quotes containing the words sleepy and/or hollow:
“I know of the sleepy country, where swans fly round
Coupled with golden chains, and sing as they fly.
A king and a queen are wandering there, and the sound
Has made them so happy and hopeless, so deaf and so blind
With wisdom, they wander till all the years have gone by....”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“This house was but a slight departure from the hollow tree, which the bear still inhabits,being a hollow made with trees piled up, with a coating of bark like its original.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
