Famous quotes containing the words storey, log and/or house:

    Tell me, Frank. Have you been indulging in what I call Mrs. Weaver’s weakness for social informalities?
    —David Storey (b. 1933)

    It is not growing like a tree
    In bulk, doth make man better be,
    Or standing long an oak, three hundred year,
    To fall a log at last, dry, bald, and sere:
    A lily of a day
    Is fairer far in May
    Although it fall and die that night;
    It was the plant and flower of light.
    In small proportions we just beauties see,
    And in short measures life may perfect be.
    Ben Jonson (1572–1637)

    A severe though not unfriendly critic of our institutions said that “the cure for admiring the House of Lords was to go and look at it.”
    Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)
