Hollow

Famous quotes containing the word hollow:

“Parched body, hollow eyes, some uncouth thing
Made him appear, long since from earth exiled.”

The nose of Saint like Bag-pipe drone,
And speaks through hollow empty Soul,
As through a Trunk, or whisp’ring hole,
Such language as no mortal Ear
But spiritual Eve-droppers can hear.”
—Samuel Butler (1612–1680)

“We are the hollow men
We are the stuffed men”
