Hollow

Famous quotes containing the word hollow:

    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)

    Parched body, hollow eyes, some uncouth thing
    Made him appear, long since from earth exiled.
    William Drummond, of Hawthornden (1585–1649)

    And now the winter sea:
    Within her hollow rind
    What sleek facility
    Of sea-conceited scop
    To plumb the nether mind!
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
