Door

Famous quotes containing the word door:

“I went back to my work, but now without enthusiasm. I had looked through an open door that I was not willing to see shut upon me. I began to reflect upon life rather seriously for a girl of twelve or thirteen. What was I here for? What could I make of myself? Must I submit to be carried along with the current, and do just what everybody else did?”
—Lucy Larcom (1824–1893)

“Each should sweep the snow from before his own door and not worry about the frost on his neighbor’s roof.”
—Chinese proverb.
