Famous quotes containing the words moat and/or house:
“This happy breed of men, this little world,
This precious stone set in the silver sea,
Which serves it in the office of a wall,
Or as a moat defensive to a house,
Against the envy of less happier lands,
This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“The house came to be haunted by the unspoken phrase: There must be more money! There must be more money!”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
