Hollow

Famous quotes containing the word hollow:

    Darker grows the valley, more and more forgetting:
    So were it with me if forgetting could be willed.
    Tell the grassy hollow that holds the bubbling well-spring
    Tell it to forget the source that keeps it filled.
    George Meredith (1828–1909)

    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)

    Through the hollow globe, a ring
    of frayed rusty scrapiron,
    is it the sea that shines?
    Is it a road at the world’s edge?
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
