Famous quotes related to windows:

    The house of my body has spoken
    often as you rebuild me like blocks,
    and promise to come visit
    when I’m finally adjusted on safe land,
    and am livable, joist to joist
    with storm windows and screens ...
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    The light struggled in through windows of oiled paper, but they read the word of God by it.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I came on a great house in the middle of the night
    Its open lighted doorway and its windows all alight,
    And all my friends were there and made me welcome too;
    But I woke in an old ruin that the winds howled through;
    And when I pay attention I must out and walk
    Among the dogs and horses that understand my talk.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    —and then it was
    There interposed a Fly—

    With Blue—uncertain stumbling Buzz—
    Between the light—and me—
    And then the Windows failed—and then
    I could not see to see—
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    In winter we lead a more inward life. Our hearts are warm and cheery, like cottages under drifts, whose windows and doors are half concealed, but from whose chimneys the smoke cheerfully ascends.... We enjoy now, not an Oriental, but a Boreal leisure, around warm stoves and fireplaces, and watch the shadow of motes in the sunbeams.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
