Famous quotes containing the words ruskin and/or house:

    All books are divisible into two classes: the books of the hour, and the books of all time.
    —John Ruskin (1819–1900)

    First there’s the children’s house of make believe,
    Some shattered dishes underneath a pine,
    The playthings in the playhouse of the children.
    Weep for what little things could make them glad.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
