Famous quotes containing the words palace and/or museum:
“For the Christ-child who comes is the Master of all;
No palace too great, no cottage too small.”
—Phillips Brooks (1835–1893)
“I have no connections here; only gusty collisions,
rootless seedlings forced into bloom, that collapse.
...
I am the Visiting Poet: a real unicorn,
a wind-up plush dodo, a wax museum of the Movement.
People want to push the buttons and see me glow.”
—Marge Piercy (b. 1936)
