Famous quotes containing the words listed and/or buildings:

    “I could I trust starve like a gentleman. It’s listed as part of the poetic training, you know.”
    —Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    “If the factory people outside the colleges live under the discipline of narrow means, the people inside live under almost every other kind of discipline except that of narrow means—from the fruity austerities of learning, through the iron rations of English gentlemanhood, down to the modest disadvantages of occupying cold stone buildings without central heating and having to cross two or three quadrangles to take a bath.”
    —Margaret Halsey (b. 1910)
