Famous quotes containing the words arms and/or hotel:
“Strange is this alien despotism of Sleep which takes two persons lying in each others arms & separates them leagues, continents, asunder.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“Consider his life which was valueless
In terms of employment, hotel ledgers, news files.
Consider. One bullet in ten thousand kills a man.
Ask. Was so much expenditure justified
On the death of one so young and so silly
Lying under the olive tree, O world, O death?”
—Stephen Spender (19091995)
