Famous quotes containing the words high and/or ceiling:
“It is not their bones or hide or tallow that I love most. It is the living spirit of the tree, not its spirit of turpentine, with which I sympathize, and which heals my cuts. It is as immortal as I am, and perchance will go to as high a heaven, there to tower above me still.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“What made the ceiling waterproof?
Landor’s tarpaulin on the roof.”
