A stair not worn hollow by footsteps is, regarded from its own point of view, only a boring something made of wood.
Franz Kafka
All things on earth point home in old October; sailors to sea, travellers to walls and fences, hunters to field and hollow and the long voice of the hounds, the lover to the love he has forsaken.
Thomas Wolfe
Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace.
Buddha
Bruce Wayne is Batman. He became Batman the instant his parents were murdered. Batman needs Bruce, however hollow that identity feels to him from time to time. Bruce keeps Batman human.
Kevin Conroy
But if we get to the point where more people do not believe in a God than who do believe in God, we will have a hollow legal system - we will have something without heart.
Lee Greenwood
Hollow commitments to action in the future are insufficient. Deferring difficult issues must not be tolerated. Our children and grandchildren expect us to speak and act decisively.
Jenny Shipley
I am afraid that the ordinary citizen will not like to be told that the banks can and do create and destroy money. And they who control the credit of a nation direct the policy of governments, and hold in the hollow of their hands the destiny of the people.
Richard McKenna
I have found that hollow, which even I had relied on for solid.
Henry David Thoreau
I like poems you can tack all over with a hammer and there are no hollow places.
John Ashbery
It is not poverty so much as pretense that harasses a ruined man - the struggle between a proud mind and an empty purse - the keeping up of a hollow show that must soon come to an end.
Washington Irving
My friends tell me that I've calmed down, that I seem more centered. I don't know, I think my inner self was more hollow before, which made me more scattered, and more needy to get laughs.
Chris Kattan
Science without respect for human life is degrading to us all and reflects a hollow and deceptive philosophy, a philosophy that we as a people should never condone.
Nathan Deal
Sleepy Hollow had a lot of action in it, even though it was a fairy-tale movie.
Colleen Atwood
So all the rest is O.K., but fame is a hollow ground, isn't it? It's an empty kind of thing.
Richard O'Brien
The call of love sounds very hollow among these immobile rocks.
Gustav Mahler
The earth is the Lord's fullness thereof: this is no longer a hollow dictum of religion, but a directive for economic action toward human brotherhood.
Lewis Mumford
The laughter of man is more terrible than his tears, and takes more forms hollow, heartless, mirthless, maniacal.
James Thurber
There's some pictures of me playing hollow bodies, but I never last long. I always come back to the acoustic.
Dan Hicks
Those who cannot work with their hearts achieve but a hollow, half-hearted success that breeds bitterness all around.
Abdul Kalam
Thus much for thy assurance know; a hollow friend is but a hellish foe.
Nicholas Breton
