Empty

Famous quotes containing the word empty:

    Moving, you roll down the garment,
    down that pink snapper and hoarder,
    as your belly, soft as pudding,
    slops into the empty space....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Fact I know; and Law I know; but what is this Necessity, save an empty shadow of my own mind’s throwing?
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–1895)

    To people off alone, as we were, there is something stirring about finding evidences of human labour and care in the soil of an empty country. It comes to you as a sort of message, makes you feel differently about the ground you walk over every day.
    Willa Cather (1873–1947)
