Famous quotes containing the words house, winter and/or street:

    “Perchance the time will come when every house even will have not only its sleeping-rooms, and dining-room, and talking-room or parlor, but its thinking-room also, and the architects will put it into their plans. Let it be furnished and ornamented with whatever conduces to serious and creative thought. I should not object to the holy water, or any other simple symbol, if it were consecrated by the imagination of the worshipers.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Over the winter glaciers,
    I see the summer glow,
    And, through the wild-piled snowdrift,
    The warm rosebuds below.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “At any street corner the feeling of absurdity can strike any man in the face.”
    —Albert Camus (1913–1960)
