House Seat

Famous quotes containing the words house and/or seat:

“Go to the adolescent who are smothered in family—
Oh how hideous it is
To see three generations of one house gathered together!
It is like an old tree with shoots,
And with some branches rotted and falling.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

“My taking a seat on the Council of the Fathers caused a desperate fluttering among my ghosts.”
