Famous quotes containing the words hollow and/or reserve:

    Having books published is very destructive to writing. It is even worse than making love too much. Because when you make love too much at least you get a damned clarte that is like no other light. A very clear and hollow light.
    Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

    Her face had the seamed reserve of the old in this country [Japan]. It was a neighborhood poignantly rich in old ladies.
    Angela Carter (1940–1992)
