Hungry Ghosts

Famous quotes containing the words hungry and/or ghosts:

    That if a dancer stayed his hungry foot
    It seemed the sun and moon were in the fruit:
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    They call them the haunted shores, these stretches of Devonshire and Cornwall and Ireland which rear up against the westward ocean. Mists gather here, and sea fog, and eerie stories. That’s not because there are more ghosts here than in other places, mind you. It’s just that people who live hereabouts are strangely aware of them.
    Dodie Smith, and Lewis Allen. Roderick Fitzgerald (Ray Milland)
