Empty Row

Famous quotes containing the words empty and/or row:

    “History counts its skeletons in round numbers.
    A thousand and one remains a thousand,
    as though the one had never existed:
    an imaginary embryo, an empty cradle,
    ...
    emptiness running down steps toward the garden,
    nobody’s place in line.”
    —Wislawa Szymborska (b. 1923)

    “Those who want to row on the ocean of human knowledge do not get far, and the storm drives those out of their course who set sail.”
