Famous quotes containing the word hungry:
“There, through the broken branches, go
The ravens of unresting thought;
Flying, crying, to and fro,
Cruel claw and hungry throat,
Or else they stand and sniff the wind....”

“Wherever theres a fight so hungry people can eat, Ill be there. Wherever theres a cop beating up a guy, Ill be there. Ill be in the way guys yell when theyre mad. Ill be in the way kids laugh when theyre hungry and they know suppers ready. And when the people eat the stuff they raise, and living in the houses they build, Ill be there, too.”
—Nunnally Johnson (18971977)
“You sang far better than you knew; the songs
That for your listeners hungry hearts sufficed
Still live,but more than this to you belongs:
You sang a race from wood and stone to Christ.”
—James Weldon Johnson (18711938)
