Hollow Powers

Famous quotes containing the words hollow and/or powers:

    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;

    Anti-Nebraska, Know-Nothings, and general disgust with the powers that be, have carried this county [Hamilton County, Ohio] by between seven and eight thousand majority! How people do hate Catholics, and what a happiness it was to show it in what seemed a lawful and patriotic manner.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
