Empty Row

Famous quotes containing the words empty and/or row:

“There’s only one way for an individual to remain upright, not to fall to pieces, not to sink into the mire of self-oblivion ... or self-contempt. That’s calmly to turn away from everything, to say, “Enough!” and, folding one’s useless arms across one’s empty breast, to retain the ultimate, the sole attainable virtue, the virtue of recognizing one’s own insignificance.”
—Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818–1883)

“In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,”
—John McCrae (1872–1918)
