Palace Lock Heart

Famous quotes containing the words palace, lock and/or heart:

    It takes a heap o’ children to make a home that’s true,
    And home can be a palace grand, or just a plain, old shoe;
    But if it has a mother dear, and a good old dad or two,
    Why, that’s the sort of good old home for good old me and you.
    Louis Untermeyer (1885–1977)

    There warn’t anybody at the church, except maybe a hog or two, for there warn’t any lock on the door, and hogs likes a puncheon floor in summertime because it’s cool. If you notice, most folks don’t go to church only when they’ve got to; but a hog is different.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    Then sounds the voice of One who like the heart of man
    Was once a child who among beasts has lain—
    ‘Still do I love, still shed my innocent light, my Blood, for thee.’
    Dame Edith Sitwell (1887–1964)
