Side Sliding Door

Famous quotes containing the words side, sliding and/or door:

    The very notion of tabu is one of the rightest notions in the world. Better any old tabu than none, for a man cannot be said to be “on the side of the stars” at all, unless he makes refusals.
    Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)

    Here at the fountain’s sliding foot,
    Or at some fruit-tree’s mossy root,
    Casting the body’s vest aside,
    My soul into the boughs does glide:
    There, like a bird, it sits and sings,
    Then whets and combs its silver wings,
    And, till prepared for longer flights,
    Waves in its plumes the various light.
    Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)

    When they sometimes
    Come down the stairs at night and stand perplexed
    Behind the door and headboard of the bed,
    Brushing their chalky skull with chalky fingers,
    With sounds like the dry rattling of a shutter,
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
