Featured Quotes from The Legend of Sleepy Hollow
Here’s a sneak peek of some of the quotes you’ll find in this collection.
Each one captures the eerie, yet whimsical essence of Washington Irving’s tale, paired with a vintage paper design and typewriter font for that extra touch of nostalgia.
“AND how often was he thrown into complete dismay by some rushing blast howling among the trees, in the idea that it was the Galloping Hessian on one of his nightly scourings!”
Washington Irving
“HOW often he was appalled by some shrub covered with snow, which, like a sheeted spectre, beset his very path! How often did he shrink with curdling awe at the sound of his own steps on the frosty crust beneath his feet, and dread to look over his shoulder, lest he should behold some uncouth being tramping close behind him!”
Washington Irving
“NO signs of life occurred near him, but occasionally the melancholy chirp of a cricket, or perhaps the guttural twang of a bull-frog from a neighboring marsh, as if sleeping uncomfortably and turning suddenly in his bed.”
Washington Irving
“THEY harried his hitherto peaceful domains; smoked out his singing school by stopping up the chimney; broke into the school-house at night, in spite of its formidable fastenings of withe and window stakes, and turned everything topsy-turvy; so that the poor school-master began to think all the witches in the country held their meetings there.”
Washington Irving
