Famous quotes containing the words states and/or house:

“Life is a series of sensations connected to different states of consciousness.”
—Rémy De Gourmont (1858–1915)

“I sometimes left a good fire when I went to take a walk in a winter afternoon; and when I returned, three or four hours afterward, it would be still alive and glowing. My house was not empty though I was gone. It was as if I had left a cheerful housekeeper behind. It was I and Fire that lived there; and commonly my housekeeper proved trustworthy.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
