Hollow

Famous quotes containing the word hollow:

    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)

    I don’t give a hoot in a hollow if there’s oranges and grapes a-crowdin’ us out of bed, I ain’t goin’ to California! This is my country and I belong here. This is my dirt. It’s no good, but it’s mine.
    Nunnally Johnson (1897–1977)

    Ye could not know where lies a thing so fair,
    No stone is there to show, no tongue to say,
    What was; no dirge, except the hollow sea’s,
    Mourns o’er the beauty of the Cyclades.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
