Meaningless

Famous quotes containing the word meaningless:

    The sea cries with its meaningless voice,
    Treating alike its dead and its living,
    Ted Hughes (b. 1930)

    Literature is the expression of a feeling of deprivation, a recourse against a sense of something missing. But the contrary is also true: language is what makes us human. It is a recourse against the meaningless noise and silence of nature and history.
    Octavio Paz (b. 1914)

    No matter which word it is, when I pronounce repeatedly, it ends up sounding utterly ridiculous and meaningless to me.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
