Famous quotes containing the words jack and/or jacobs:

    This is the house that Jack built.

    This is the malt
    That lay in the house that Jack built.
    Mother Goose (fl. 17th–18th century. The House That Jack Built (l. 1–3)

    ... a family I know ... bought an acre in the country on which to build a house. For many years, while they lacked the money to build, they visited the site regularly and picnicked on a knoll, the site’s most attractive feature. They liked so much to visualize themselves as always there, that when they finally built they put the house on the knoll. But then the knoll was gone. Somehow they had not realized they would destroy it and lose it by supplanting it with themselves.
    —Jane Jacobs (b. 1916)
