Pumpkin House

Famous quotes containing the words pumpkin and/or house:

    “Ah! on Thanksgiving day, when from East and from West,
    From North and from South, come the pilgrim and guest,
    When the gray-haired New Englander sees round his board
    The old broken links of affection restored,
    When the care-wearied man seeks his mother once more,
    And the worn matron smiles where the girl smiled before.
    What moistens the lip and what brightens the eye?
    What calls back the past, like the rich Pumpkin pie?”
    —John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)

    “Then the master said to the slave, Go out into the roads and lanes, and compel people to come in, so that my house may be filled.”
    —Bible: New Testament, Luke 14:23.
