Odd Numbered Rooms

Famous quotes containing the words odd and/or rooms:

“Borrowers of books—those mutilators of collections, spoilers of the symmetry of shelves, and creators of odd volumes.”

“If nations always moved from one set of furnished rooms to another—and always into a better set—things might be easier, but the trouble is that there is no one to prepare the new rooms. The future is worse than the ocean—there is nothing there. It will be what men and circumstances make it.”
—Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)
