Famous quotes containing the words mask and/or windows:
“To clothe the fiery thought
In simple words succeeds,
For still the craft of genius is
To mask a king in weeds.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“In winter we lead a more inward life. Our hearts are warm and cheery, like cottages under drifts, whose windows and doors are half concealed, but from whose chimneys the smoke cheerfully ascends.... We enjoy now, not an Oriental, but a Boreal leisure, around warm stoves and fireplaces, and watch the shadow of motes in the sunbeams.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
