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)

“and wife or husband
who does not lock the door of the marriage
against you, finds you
not as unwelcome third in the room, but as
the light of the moon on flesh and hair.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

“A torn jacket is soon mended; but hard words bruise the heart of a child.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (20th century)
