Famous quotes containing the words empty and/or chamber:
“There is the empty chapel, only the wind’s home.
It has no windows, and the door swings,
Dry bones can harm no one.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“O birds, your perfect virtues bring,
Your song, your forms, your rhythmic flight,
Your manners for your heart’s delight,
Nestle in hedge, or barn, or roof,
Here weave your chamber weather-proof,
Forgive our harms, and condescend
To man, as to a lubber friend,
And, generous, teach his awkward race
Courage, and probity, and grace!”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
