Side Chamber

Famous quotes containing the words side and/or chamber:

“Boredom is just the reverse side of fascination: both depend on being outside rather than inside a situation, and one leads to the other.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

“O birds, your perfect virtues bring,
Your song, your forms, your rhythmic flight,
Your manners for your heart’s delight,
Nestle in hedge, or barn, or roof,
Here weave your chamber weather-proof,
Forgive our harms, and condescend
To man, as to a lubber friend,
And, generous, teach his awkward race
Courage, and probity, and grace!”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
