Famous quotes containing the words ruskin and/or house:

    “The purest and most thoughtful minds are those which love colour the most.”
    —John Ruskin (1819–1900)

    “To have no son, no wife,
    No house or land still seemed quite natural.
    Only a numbness registered the shock
    Of finding out how much had gone of life,
    How widely from the others.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
