I looked into that empty bottle and I saw myself.
Grace Metalious

I mean simply to say that I want my characters to suggest the background in themselves, even when it is not visible. I want them to be so powerfully realized that we cannot imagine them apart from their physical and social context even when we see them in empty space.
Michelangelo Antonioni

I soon became convinced... that all the theorizing would be empty brain exercise and therefore a waste of time unless one first ascertained what the population of the universe really consists of.
Fritz Zwicky

I talk to God but the sky is empty.
Sylvia Plath

I think about that "empty" space a lot. That emptiness is what allows for something to actually evolve in a natural way. I've had to learn that over the years - because one of the traps of being an artist is to always want to be creating, always wanting to produce.
Meredith Monk

I think it was when I ran into Kerouac and Burroughs - when I was 17 - that I realized I was talking through an empty skull... I wasn't thinking my own thoughts or saying my own thoughts.
Allen Ginsberg

I think people need housing. And there's empty buildings, I think people should live in there. If you want to call them squatters, trespassers, hey, I call Wall Street thieves!
Al Lewis

I think that there are empty ecological niches in the literary landscape crying to be filled and when a book more or less fills a niche it's seized on, even when it's a far from perfect fit.
Edmund White

I think the American West really attracts me because it's romantic. The desert, the empty space, the drama.
Ang Lee

I used to empty the studio out and throw stuff away. I now don't. There will be a whole series of dead ends that a year or two down the line I'll come back to.
Anish Kapoor

I used to like to break into other people's houses and sit in their rooms. I found it very comforting to be in someone's empty house.
Jared Leto

I wish my deadly foe no worse Than want of friends, and empty purse.
Nicholas Breton

I'd got very successful, everyone knew who I was, but I felt very empty.
Boy George

I'd rather play in front of a full house than an empty crowd.
Johnny Giles

I'm not the type of guy who enjoys one-night stands. It leaves me feeling very empty and cynical. It's not even fun sexually. I need to feel something for the woman and entertain the vain hope that it may lead to a relationship.
Ben Affleck

I've learned one thing about life. We're a good deal like that ball, dancing on the fountain. We know as little about the forces that move us, and move the world around us, as that empty ball does.
Ardel Wray

I've led this empty life for over forty years and now I can pass that heritage on and ensure that the misery will continue for at least one more generation.
Larry David

If a farmer fills his barn with grain, he gets mice. If he leaves it empty, he gets actors.
Walter Scott

If I don't write to empty my mind, I go mad.
Lord Byron

If I look at my old lyrics, they seem to be full of rage, but empty. There was an emptiness in my life.
Billie Joe Armstrong
