The House
Quincy House is a home to Catholic graduate students from across North America, located in the historic Brookland neighborhood of the District of Columbia.

A "Best of Quincy, vol. 1" is anticipated within the next year.
Residents of Quincy House have been known to study philosophy, theology and national security at CUA, the Pontifical John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family at The Catholic University of America, and The Institute of World Politics, respectively.

Famous quotes containing the word house:
“Every spirit builds itself a house; and beyond its house a world; and beyond its world, a heaven. Know then that the world exists for you.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“My dwelling was small, and I could hardly entertain an echo in it; but it seemed larger for being a single apartment and remote from neighbors. All the attractions of a house were concentrated in one room; it was kitchen, chamber, parlor, and keeping-room; and whatever satisfaction parent or child, master or servant, derive from living in a house, I enjoyed it all.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
