Van Nest

Famous quotes containing the words van and/or nest:

    Mrs. Van Daan’s grizzling is absolutely unbearable; now she can’t any longer drive us crazy over the invasion, she nags us the whole day long about the bad weather. It really would be nice to dump her in a bucket of cold water and put her up in the loft.
    Anne Frank (1929–1945)

    “... Or how should love be worth its pains were it not
    That when he has fallen asleep within my arms,
    Being wearied out, I love in man the child?
    What can they know of love that do not know
    She builds her nest upon a narrow ledge
    Above a windy precipice?”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
