Hollow

Famous quotes containing the word hollow:

    “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)

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

    “Since ever they flung abroad in spring
    The leaves had promised themselves this flight,
    Who now would fain seek sheltering wall,
    Or thicket, or hollow place for the night.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
