Cell Walls

Famous quotes containing the words cell and/or walls:

“A cell for prayer, a hall for joy,—
They treated nature as they would.”

“A temple, you know, was anciently “an open place without a roof,” whose walls served merely to shut out the world and direct the mind toward heaven; but a modern meeting-house shuts out the heavens, while it crowds the world into still closer quarters.”
