Famous quotes containing the words white and/or home:
“Midway the lake we took on board two manly-looking middle-aged men.... I talked with one of them, telling him that I had come all this distance partly to see where the white pine, the Eastern stuff of which our houses are built, grew, but that on this and a previous excursion into another part of Maine I had found it a scarce tree; and I asked him where I must look for it. With a smile, he answered that he could hardly tell me.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Huw: Bron, would you have me to live in this house, and have my wages?
Bronwen: Your home is with your mother.
Huw: It was she who sent me.
Bronwen: From pity.
Huw: No, from sense. If you put clothes on night and morning, let them be my clothes.
Bronwen: Good old man.”
—Philip Dunne (1908–1992)
