Famous quotes containing the word door:

“Too often when you thought you’d be showered with confetti
What they flung at you was a plate of hot spaghetti
You’ve put your fancy clothes and flashy gems in hock
Yet you pause before your father’s door afraid to knock”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)

“Adults who still derive childlike pleasure from hanging gifts of a ready-made education on the Christmas tree of a child waiting outside the door to life do not realize how unreceptive they are making the children to everything that constitutes the true surprise of life.”
—Karl Kraus (1874–1936)

“You there, I here,
With just the door ajar
That oceans are,
And prayer,
And that pale sustenance,
Despair!”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
