Winter Home

Famous quotes containing the words winter and/or home:

    And in spite of all the dishonour,
    The broken standards, the broken lives,
    The broken faith in one place or another,
    here was something left that was more than the tales
    Of old men on winter evenings.
    Only the faith could have done what was good of it....
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    Men are all right for friends, but as soon as you marry them they turn into cranky old fathers, even the wild ones. They begin to tell you what’s sensible and what’s foolish, and want you to stick at home all the time. I prefer to be foolish when I feel like it, and be accountable to nobody.
    Willa Cather (1873–1947)
