Famous quotes containing the word chairs:

    I had three chairs in my house; one for solitude, two for friendship, three for society.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Behind her was confusion in the room,
    Of chairs turned upside down to sit like people
    In other chairs, and something, come to look,
    For every room a house has parlor, bedroom,
    And dining room thrown pell-mell in the kitchen.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    My verse
    has brought me
    no roubles to spare:
    no craftsmen have made
    mahogany chairs for my house.
    Vladimir Mayakovsky (1893–1930)
