Famous quotes containing the words empty and/or chamber:
“In vain we lavish out our lives,
To gather empty wind;
The choicest blessings earth can yield
Will starve a hungry mind.”

In an iron-blue chamber of that afternoon
On which we wore things and looked well at
A slab of business rising behind the stars.”
