Empty Chamber

Famous quotes containing the words empty and/or chamber:

    Yet, to the empty trapeze of your flesh,
    O Magdalene, each comes back to die alone.
    Then you, the burlesque of our lust—and faith,
    Lug us back lifeward—bone by infant bone.
    Hart Crane (1899–1932)

    Experience is never limited, and it is never complete; it is an immense sensibility, a kind of huge spider-web of the finest silken threads suspended in the chamber of consciousness, and catching every air-borne particle in its tissue.
    Henry James (1843–1916)
