Famous quotes containing the words driscoll and/or house:

    Hold fast your dreams!
    Within your heart
    Keep one still, secret spot
    Where dreams may go,
    —Louise Driscoll (b. 1875)

    It takes a heap o’ livin’ in a house t’ make it home,
    A heap o’ sun an’ shadder, an’ ye sometimes have t’ roam
    Afore ye really ‘preciate the things ye lef’ behind,
    An’ hunger fer ‘em somehow, with ‘em allus on yer mind.
    Edgar Albert Guest (1881–1959)
