Chairs

Famous quotes containing the word chairs:

“Behind her was confusion in the room,
Of chairs turned upside down to sit like people
In other chairs, and something, come to look,
For every room a house has parlor, bedroom,
And dining room thrown pell-mell in the kitchen.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

has brought me
no roubles to spare:
no craftsmen have made
mahogany chairs for my house.”
—Vladimir Mayakovsky (1893–1930)
