Fills

Famous quotes containing the word fills:

    The screech and mechanical uproar of the big city turns the citified head, fills citified ears—as the song of birds, wind in the trees, animal cries, or as the voices and songs of his loved ones once filled his heart. He is sidewalk- happy.
    Frank Lloyd Wright (1869–1959)

    The Nymph exulting fills with shouts the sky;
    The walls, the woods, and long canals reply.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    One great advantage which poetry has over prose—one sense in which, we might even say, it is considerably more beautiful—is that it fills up space approximately three times as rapidly.
    James Thurber (1894–1961)
