Hollow

Famous quotes containing the word hollow:

“Parched body, hollow eyes, some uncouth thing
Made him appear, long since from earth exiled.”
—William Drummond, of Hawthornden (1585–1649)

“I often look upon a face
Most ugly, grisly, bare and thin;
I often view the hollow place,
Where eyes and nose had sometimes been;”
—Robert Southwell (1561?–1595)

“I had a thought for no one’s but your ears:
That you were beautiful, and that I strove
To love you in the old high way of love;
That it had all seemed happy, and yet we’d grown
As weary-hearted as that hollow moon.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
