House Built

Famous quotes containing the words house and/or built:

    “... It’s a day’s work
    To empty one house of all household goods
    And fill another with ‘em fifteen miles away,
    Although you do no more than dump them down.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Many are concerned about the monuments of the West and the East,—to know who built them. For my part, I should like to know who in those days did not build them,—who were above such trifling.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
