Famous quotes containing the words wooden and/or dome:
“It’s the anarchy of poverty
delights me, the old
yellow wooden house indented
among the new brick tenements”
—William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
“Build thee more stately mansions, O my soul,
As the swift seasons roll!
Leave thy low-vaulted past!
Let each new temple, nobler than the last,
Shut thee from heaven with a dome more vast,
Till thou at length art free,
Leaving thine outgrown shell by life’s unresting sea!”
—Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)
