Famous quotes containing the words general, house and/or museum:

    The bond between a man and his profession is similar to that which ties him to his country; it is just as complex, often ambivalent, and in general it is understood completely only when it is broken: by exile or emigration in the case of one’s country, by retirement in the case of a trade or profession.
    Primo Levi (1919–1987)

    First there’s the children’s house of make believe,
    Some shattered dishes underneath a pine,
    The playthings in the playhouse of the children.
    Weep for what little things could make them glad.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    To look at and properly appreciate the British Museum is the work of a lifetime.
    M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)
