Hollow

Famous quotes containing the word hollow:

“It was the most wild and desolate region we had camped in, where, if anywhere, one might expect to meet with befitting inhabitants, but I heard only the squeak of a nighthawk flitting over. The moon in her first quarter, in the fore part of the night, setting over the bare rocky hills garnished with tall, charred, and hollow stumps or shells of trees, served to reveal the desolation.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

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

“All my fond love thus do I blow to heaven
‘Tis gone.
Arise, black vengeance, from the hollow hell!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
