“For a good book has this quality, that it is not merely a petrification of its author, but that once it has been tossed behind, like Deucalions little stone, it acquires a separate and vivid life of its own.”
—Caroline Lejeune (18971973)
“Under the one word house are included the schoolhouse, the almshouse, the jail, the tavern, the dwellinghouse; and the meanest shed or cave in which men live contains elements of all these. But nowhere on the earth stands the entire and perfect house.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
