Memorial House

Famous quotes containing the words memorial and/or house:

    When I received this [coronation] ring I solemnly bound myself in marriage to the realm; and it will be quite sufficient for the memorial of my name and for my glory, if, when I die, an inscription be engraved on a marble tomb, saying, “Here lieth Elizabeth, which reigned a virgin, and died a virgin.”
    Elizabeth I (1533–1603)

    The house came to be haunted by the unspoken phrase: There must be more money! There must be more money!
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
