Alfred Moore House

Famous quotes containing the words moore and/or house:

    With its baby rivers and little towns, each with its abbey or its cathedral,
    with voices—one voice perhaps, echoing through the transept—The
    criterion of suitability and convenience.
    —Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

    When we of the so-called better classes are scared as men were never scared in history at material ugliness and hardship; when we put off marriage until our house can be artistic, and quake at the thought of having a child without a bank-account and doomed to manual labor, it is time for thinking men to protest against so unmanly and irreligious a state of opinion.
    William James (1842–1910)
