House Covent Garden

Famous quotes containing the words house and/or garden:

“My dwelling was small, and I could hardly entertain an echo in it; but it seemed larger for being a single apartment and remote from neighbors. All the attractions of a house were concentrated in one room; it was kitchen, chamber, parlor, and keeping-room; and whatever satisfaction parent or child, master or servant, derive from living in a house, I enjoyed it all.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“we know our end
A packet of worm-seed, a garden of spent tissues.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
