Famous quotes containing the words ruskin and/or house:

    To make your children capable of honesty is the beginning of education.
    —John Ruskin (1819–1900)

    Yet the day wears,
    And door succeeds door;
    I try the fresh fortune—
    Range the wide house from the wing to the centre,
    Still the same chance! she goes out as I enter.
    Spend my whole day in the quest,—who cares?
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)
