Chimney Structures

Famous quotes containing the words chimney and/or structures:

    Now he sings of Jacky Horner,
    Sitting in the chimney corner,
    Eating of a Christmas pie,
    Putting in his thumb, O fie!
    Putting in, O fie! his thumb,
    Pulling out, O strange, a plum.
    Henry Carey (1693?–1743)

    The American who has been confined, in his own country, to the sight of buildings designed after foreign models, is surprised on entering York Minster or St. Peter’s at Rome, by the feeling that these structures are imitations also,—faint copies of an invisible archetype.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
