You stumble around, bumping into the furniture. Gradually, you learn where each piece of furniture is. And finally, after six months or so, you find the light switch and turn it on. Suddenly, it’s all illuminated and you can see exactly where you were. Then you enter the next dark room Picture Quote #1

O thou who dost inhabit in my breast; leave not the mansion so long tenantless; lest growing ruinous the building fall, and leave no memory of what it was Picture Quote #1

Why so large a cost, having so short a lease, does thou upon your fading mansion spend? Picture Quote #1

Can storied urn, or animated bust back to its mansion call the fleeting breath? Can honour’s voice provoke the silent dust, or flatt’ry soothe the dull cold ear of death? Picture Quote #1

I love this mansion, though it is too many windows... to open halfway each morning... to close halfway each night Picture Quote #1

The essence of capitalism is to turn nature into commodities and commodities into capital. The live green earth is transformed into dead gold bricks, with luxury items for the few and toxic slag heaps for the many. The glittering mansion overlooks a vast sprawl of shanty towns, wherein a desperate, demoralized humanity is kept in line with drugs, television, and armed force Picture Quote #1

Gospel songs to me are about the mansion in the sky, and washed in the blood of Christ’s crimson blood, songs that are filled with biblical wording that’s no longer understood by a lot of people Picture Quote #1

I live in the same house I’ve lived in for 25 years. I haven’t gone off and bought mansions. Even though my subject is living, living in a mansion wouldn’t do for my readers. I have to keep my credibility alive with my readers, so we’re in the same place. I just make that place nicer and nicer. And that’s a secret. People don’t know that. People think, oh, she lives in this fabulous place, but it’s the same old place. It started out like a farm, it got to be a farmette, then it got to be an estatelet. I built a wall; it helped a lot. But it’s the same place, the same grounded nature Picture Quote #1

I would call back at least for literature this world of shadows we are losing. In the mansion called literature I would have the eaves deep and the walls dark, I would push back into the shadows the things that come forward too clearly, I would strip away the useless decoration. I do not ask that this be done everywhere, but perhaps we may be allowed at least one mansion where we can turn off the electric lights and see what it is like without them Picture Quote #1

He’s on a mission of mercy to the new frontier, he’s gonna check us all on out of here. Up to that mansion on a hill, where you can get your prescription filled Picture Quote #1

If we have a giant mansion and we don’t keep it as well as that room, then our yoga isn’t good and our attention field will be very poor and we won’t have power, and we’ll be totally hooked on the transient Picture Quote #1

They loved so intensely that moments of their life have been etched into the very fabric of the mansion. Some say the king designed it that way, so if one day he lost her he could come live with her residue Picture Quote #1

We must not measure greatness from the mansion down, but from the manger up. Jesus said that we should not be judged by the bark we wear but by the fruit that we bear. Jesus said that we must measure greatness by how we treat the least of these Picture Quote #1

We have built for this world a family mansion, and the next a family tomb. The best works of art are the expression of man’s struggle to free himself from this condition, but the effect of our art is merely to make this low state comfortable and that higher state to be forgotten Picture Quote #1
