Timber Frame House

Famous quotes containing the words timber, frame and/or house:

    This fellow will but join you together as they join
    wainscot; then one of you will prove a shrunk panel, and
    like green timber warp, warp.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    she drew back a while,
    Then, yielding to the irresistible joy,
    With frantic gesture and short breathless cry
    Folded his frame in her dissolving arms.
    Now blackness veiled his dizzy eyes, and night
    Involved and swallowed up the vision; sleep,
    Like a dark flood suspended in its course,
    Rolled back its impulse on his vacant brain.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    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)
