Front Room

Famous quotes containing the words front and/or room:

“Every body we know surrounds himself with a fine house, fine books, conservatory, gardens, equipage, and all manner of toys, as screens to interpose between himself and his guest.

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“A stranger has come
To share my room in the house not right in the head,
A girl mad as birds....”
