Famous quotes containing the words ruskin and/or house:

    All great and beautiful work has come of first gazing without shrinking into the darkness.
    —John Ruskin (1819–1900)

    This is the end, the redemption from Wilderness, way for the
    Wonderer, House sought for All, black handkerchief washed clean by
    weeping—page beyond Psalm—Last change of mine and Naomi—to Gods perfect Darkness—Death, stay thy phantoms!
    Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)
