Valley House

Famous quotes containing the words valley and/or house:

“To be seventy years old is like climbing the Alps. You reach a snow-crowned summit, and see behind you the deep valley stretching miles and miles away, and before you other summits higher and whiter, which you may have strength to climb, or may not. Then you sit down and meditate and wonder which it will be.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)

“Beauty is all very well at first sight; but who ever looks at it when it has been in the house three days?”
