House Leaves

Famous quotes containing the words house and/or leaves:

    This house was designed and constructed with the freedom of stroke of a forester’s axe, without other compass and square than Nature uses.

    When beechen buds begin to swell,
    And woods the blue-bird’s warble know,
    The yellow violet’s modest bell
    Peeps from the last year’s leaves below.
    William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)
