Alfred Moore House

Famous quotes containing the words moore and/or house:

    The monkeys winked too much and were afraid of snakes. The zebras,
    supreme in their abnormality; the elephants with their fog-colored skin
    and strictly practical appendages
    —Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

    Ah, yet, ere I descend to the grave,
    May I a small house and large garden have;
    And a few friends, and many books, both true,
    Both wise, and both delightful too!
    And since love ne’er will from me flee,
    A mistress moderately fair,
    And good as guardian angels are,
    Only beloved and loving me.
    Abraham Cowley (1618–1667)
