Shallow

Famous quotes containing the word shallow:

    Eternal smiles his emptiness betray,
    As shallow streams run dimpling all the way.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    What is more hopelessly uninteresting than accomplished liberty? Great swarming, teeming Sydney flowing out into these myriads of bungalows, like shallow waters spreading, undyked. And what then? Nothing. No inner life, no high command, no interest in anything finally.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    It is only shallow people who do not judge by appearances. The true mystery of the world is the visible, not the invisible.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
