Hollow

Famous quotes containing the word hollow:

“This Light inspires, and plays upon
The nose of Saint like Bag-pipe drone,
And speaks through hollow empty Soul,
As through a Trunk, or whisp’ring hole,
Such language as no mortal Ear
But spiritual Eve-droppers can hear.”
—Samuel Butler (1612–1680)

“Do not put all your goods in hollow ships.”
—Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)

“We are the hollow men
We are the stuffed men”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
