Famous quotes containing the words ambassadors, lived and/or house:

    “Designs in connection with postage stamps and coinage may be described, I think, as the silent ambassadors on national taste.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “If there were one who lived wholly without the use of money, the State itself would hesitate to demand it of him. But the rich man—not to make any invidious comparison—is always sold to the institution which makes him rich.... Thus his moral ground is taken from under his feet.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “You made us in the House of Pain. You made us things. Not men, not beasts, part-man, part-beast: things.”
    —Waldemar Young, U.S. screenwriter. Erle C. Kenton. Sayer of the Law (Bela Lugosi)
