Famous quotes containing the words soldier and/or hollow:
“Life contracts and death is expected,
As in a season of autumn.
The soldier falls.”

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.”
