Empty List

Famous quotes containing the words empty and/or list:

    The empty woman took toys!
    In her sisters’ homes
    Were little girls and boys.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    Modern tourist guides have helped raised tourist expectations. And they have provided the natives—from Kaiser Wilhelm down to the villagers of Chichacestenango—with a detailed and itemized list of what is expected of them and when. These are the up-to- date scripts for actors on the tourists’ stage.
    Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
