Apartment Living

Famous quotes containing the words apartment and/or living:

    “The difference of the English and Irish character is nowhere more plainly discerned than in their respective kitchens. With the former, this apartment is probably the cleanest, and certainly the most orderly, in the house.... An Irish kitchen ... is usually a temple dedicated to the goddess of disorder; and, too often, joined with her, is the potent deity of dirt.”
    —Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)

    “how seasonably
    leaf and blossom uncurl
    and living things arrange their death,
    while someone from afar off
    blows birthday candles for the world.”
    —Irving Layton (b. 1912)
