Hungry

Famous quotes containing the word hungry:

“Now the hungry lion roars,
And the wolf behowls the moon;
Whilst the heavy ploughman snores,
All with weary task fordone.
Now the wasted brands do glow,
Whilst the screech-owl, screeching loud,
Puts the wretch that lies in woe
In remembrance of a shroud.
Now it is the time of night,
That the graves, all gaping wide,
Every one lets forth his sprite,
In the church-way paths to glide:”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“In the tight belly of the dead
Burrow with hungry head
And inlay maggots like a jewel.”
—Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)

“There’s an, oh such a hungry yearning burning inside of me.”
—Cole Porter (1893–1964)
