Famous quotes containing the words london and/or houses:

    “The amount of women in London who flirt with their own husbands is perfectly scandalous. It looks so bad. It is simply washing one’s clean linen in public.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    “There is the rich quarter, with its houses of pink and white, and
    its crumbling, leafy terraces.
    There is the poorer quarter, its homes a deep blue.
    There is the market, where men are selling hats and swatting flies”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)
