Famous quotes containing the words house, dark and/or shadows:

    “Science is built up with facts, as a house is with stones. But a collection of facts is no more a science than a heap of stones is a house.”
    —Jules Henri Poincare (1854–1912)

    “We were soon in the smooth water of the Quakish Lake,... and we had our first, but a partial view of Ktaadn, its summit veiled in clouds, like a dark isthmus in that quarter, connecting the heavens with the earth.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “It is because everything is relative
    That we shall never see in that sphere of pure wisdom and
    Entertainment much more than groping shadows of an incomplete
    Former existence so close it burns like the mouth that
    Closes down over all your effort like the moment
    Of death”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)
