Famous quotes containing the words house and/or sold:
“Beauty is all very well at first sight; but who ever looks at it when it has been in the house three days?”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“Forced from home, and all its pleasures,
Afric’s coast I left forlorn;
To increase a stranger’s treasures,
O’er the raging billows borne.
Men from England bought and sold me,
Paid my price in paltry gold;
But, though theirs they have enroll’d me,
Minds are never to be sold.”
—William Cowper (1731–1800)
