Famous quotes containing the words mansion and/or house:

    “Look,
    I draw the sword myself; take it, and hit
    The innocent mansion of my love, my heart.
    Fear not, ‘tis empty of all things but grief.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “[My father] was a lazy man. It was the days of independent incomes, and if you had an independent income you didn’t work. You weren’t expected to. I strongly suspect that my father would not have been particularly good at working anyway. He left our house in Torquay every morning and went to his club. He returned, in a cab, for lunch, and in the afternoon went back to the club, played whist all afternoon, and returned to the house in time to dress for dinner.”
    —Agatha Christie (1891–1976)
