Famous quotes containing the words tent and/or roofs:
“I never saw a man who looked
With such a wistful eye
Upon that little tent of blue
Which prisoners call the sky.”

“The frost was on the village roofs as white as ocean foam;
The good red fires were burning bright in every ‘longshore home;
The windows sparkled clear, and the chimneys volleyed out;
And I vow we sniffed the victuals as the vessel went about.”
—Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
