Famous quotes containing the words hall and/or fame:
“A cell for prayer, a hall for joy,—
They treated nature as they would.”

“Stupid misery of fame and money. Always we were safe from it, mistaking our obscurity for a curse when it was a treasure. Free to make what we liked, to be ourselves, even do nothing at all. No one watching. We could be real.”
