Empty Strings

Famous quotes containing the words empty and/or strings:

    And I think in this empty world there was room for me and a
    mountain lion.
    And I think in the world beyond, how easily we might spare a million
    or two of humans
    And never miss them.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Love’s the only thing I’ve thought of or read about since I was knee-high. That’s what I always dreamed of, of meeting somebody and falling in love. And when that remarkable thing happened, I was going to recite poetry to her for hours about how her heart’s an angel’s wing and her hair the strings of a heavenly harp. Instead I got drunk and hollered at her and called her a harpy.
    Ben Hecht (1893–1964)
