“I did never know so full a voice issue from so empty a heart: but the saying is true 'The empty vessel makes the greatest sound'.”

“The empty vessel makes the loudest sound.”

“Nor are those empty-hearted whose low sound reverbs no hollowness.”

“So wise so young, they say, do never live long.”

“Hell is empty and all the devils are here.”

“If there were a sympathy in choice,War, death, or sickness, did lay siege to it,Making it momentary as a sound,Swift as a shadow, short as any dream,Brief as the lightning in the collied nightThat, in a spleen, unfolds both heaven and earth,And ere a man hath power to say 'Behold!'The jaws of darkness do devour it up;So quick bright things come to confusion.”

“Did my heart love till now? forswear it, sight! For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night.”
