Cottages Quotes

There are good hearts to serve men in palaces as in cottages Picture Quote #1

I, with other Americans, have perhaps unduly resented the stream of criticism of American life... More particularly have I resented the sneers at Main Street. For I have known that in the cottages that lay behind the street rested the strength of our national character Picture Quote #1

The cottages are full of life. It’s incredible to think they are filled with people who know nothing of computerised technology, nor even running water, sewage systems or electricity. And yet here they live. Surviving Picture Quote #1

I have found more inspiration in the cottages of fishermen than in the palaces of the rich Picture Quote #1

Although love dwells in gorgeous palaces, and sumptuous apartments, more willingly than in miserable and desolate cottages, it cannot be denied but that he sometimes causes his power to be felt in the gloomy recesses of forests, among the most bleak and rugged mountains, and in the dreary caves of a desert Picture Quote #1

A transition from an author’s book to his conversation is too often like an entrance into a large city, after a distant prospect. Remotely, we see nothing but spires of temples and turrets of palaces, and imagine it the residence of splendour, grandeur, and magnificence; but when we have passed the gates, we find it perplexed with narrow passages, disgraced with despicable cottages, embarrassed with obstructions, and clouded with smoke Picture Quote #1

You may depend upon it that they are as good hearts to serve men in palaces as in cottages Picture Quote #1

Not a living thing was to be seen and the cottages that sat huddled close to the ground remained fast shut; the smoke from the chimneys alone still gave a sign of life Picture Quote #1

Pale death enters with impartial step the cottages of the poor and the palaces of the rich Picture Quote #1

Sleep is a God too proud to wait in palaces, and yet so humble too as not to scorn the meanest country cottages Picture Quote #1
