Dwells Quotes : pic 000322127
Still I sojourn here, alone and palely loitering, though the sedge is withered from the lake and no birds sing. For I sent the bath towel to the wash this morning, and omitted to put out another. I have no towel.

Live. For Now. For the time being.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000037069
We are here for what amounts to a few/hours,/a day at most./We feel around making sense of the terrain,/our own new limbs,/Bumping up against a herd of bodies/until one becomes home./Moments sweep past. The grass bends/then learns again to stand.

Memories. Weighty emptinesses. I live in a memory the size and shape of a house.

room below and a bedchamber above.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000989898
It is an empty room, that afterwards, a soledad, and it sits there at the center of a person's life and waits to be filled.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000371618
The high-ceilinged rooms, the little balconies, alcoves, nooks and angles all suggest sanctuary, escape, creature comfort. The reader, the scholar, the browser, the borrower is king.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001437176
My place is placeless, a trace of the traceless.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001070526
The house was left; the house was deserted. It was left like a shell on a sandhill to fill with dry salt grains now that life had left it. The long life seemed to have set in; the trifling airs, nibbling, the clammy breaths, fumbling, seemed to have triumphed.

Give house-room to the best; 'tis never known
Verture and pleasure both to dwell in one.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001810519
However convenient this dwelling, we cannot remain here.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000760251
The entire world was like a palace with countless rooms whose doors opened into one another. We were able to pass from one room to the next only by exercising our memories and imaginations, but most of us, in our laziness, rarely exercised these capacities, and forever remained in the same room.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000286379
Encroach, v.
The first three nights we spent together, I couldn't sleep. I wasn't used to your breathing, your feet on my legs, your weight in my bed. In truth, I still sleep better when I'm alone. But now I allow that sleep isn't always the most important thing.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001142025
One of the main uses of a home is to stay in it, when one is too weak and spiritless for conforming, without effort, to the ways of other houses.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001498708
Visiting is a pleasure; being visited is usually a mixed or ambivalent joy ... The visitor can always go home; the visitee is already home, trapped like a rat in a drainpipe.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001069446
I walked over, my eyes scanning Luna Blu, my house, and Dave's. But it was the building behind them, that empty hotel, that had the tiniest light, provided by one word, written in fluorescent paint. Maybe it wasn't what was once there, in real life. But in this one, it said it all: STAY.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001135931
A life rooted deeply lives and grows in memory.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000302669
Our bodies, warm comfortable and familiar. But when we look out ... . Just out there, we wonder if we occupy a special place..!! Are these bodies welcoming or hostel..!! We can stay forever wondering or maybe we can leave home for the ultimate adventure

bullies the light out of the room.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001878184

Dwells Quotes : pic 001273450
We spent a century closed up within four walls
and a roof.
We are claustrophobic.
We prefer the sun and the wind and the sea
though it bites some of us
who are made of metal, and tears papery hearts.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000068209
This place felt like home; not her home perhaps, but someone's home, accustomed to shelter and keep and befriend its master.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000453435
Living one floor below Paradise.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001056882
The family home is where the deepest resentments grow, subtle, relentless as moss, the furring of surfaces organic and gradual, as though life were no longer flesh and blood but bricks and mortar, a suffocation.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000370770
I have felt a presence that disturbs me with the joy of elevated thoughts; a sense sublime of something far more deeply interfused, whose dwelling is the light of setting suns, and the round ocean, and the living air, and the blue sky, and in the mind of man ...
Dwells Quotes : pic 000978257
Solitude devastates me; company oppresses me. The presence of another person derails my thoughts; I dream of the other's presence with a strange absent-mindedness that no amount of my analytical scrutiny can define.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001150577
Sometimes you linger days
upon a word,
a single, uncontaminated drop
of sound; for days

it trembles, liquid to the mind,
then falls:
mere denotation
dimming the undertow of language.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001228291
Sometimes home is a person.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000670469
Flavius's foot catches on a metal grate over a circular opening in the floor, and my stomach contracts when I think of why a room would need a drain. The stains of human misery that must have been hosed off these white tiles ...

Dwells Quotes : pic 000649307
Yet there are some resting-places, / Life's untroubled interludes; / Times when neither past nor future / On the soul's deep calm intrudes.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000983070
IMPERMANENCE
Driftsand of the hours. Quietly disappearing,
continuously, even the happily consecrated design.
Life blows away, always: pillars already rise
without connection, carrying nothing but empty air.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000080820
Habit, laziness, and fear conspire to keep us comfortably within the familiar.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001079099
All round the room my silent servants wait, My friends in every season, bright and dim.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000121845
The inside of the cabin with the fire finally going is still the dear lovable abode now as sharp in my mind as I look at it as an unusually well focused snapshot
The sprig of ferns still stands in a glass of water, the books are there, the neat groceries ranged along the wall shelves
Dwells Quotes : pic 000978033
Sometimes a man hits upon a place to which he mysteriously feels that he belongs. Here is the home he sought, and he will settle amid scenes that he has never seen before, among men he has never known, as though they were familiar to him from his birth. Here at last he finds rest.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000772771
Whoe'er has travell'd life's dull round, Where'er his stages may have been, May sigh to think he still has found The warmest welcome at an inn.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000084655
The house didn't feel the same; it wasn't the same. The eeriness of that night permeated the walls and the suffocating warmth trapped in those walls. And I stood there, waiting for my feet to think, to move, knowing that they would decide to do just that. They had come this far.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001174098
We don't teach you how to dwell. We also don't teach you how to forget. We teach you how to move on.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001823673
A house with a great wine stored below lives in our imagination as a joyful house, fast and splendidly rooted in the soil.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001803804

Dwells Quotes : pic 001629091
With awe, around these silent walks I tread; These are the lasting mansions of the dead.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000330501
Our lives are like a house. Some people are allowed on the lawn, some onto the porch, some get into the vestibule or the kitchen. The better friends are invited deeper into our home, into our living room.'
'And some are let into the bedroom,' said Gamache.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000282862
Any who live, stand alone in one place, together.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000235008
The night garden felt like a home, with the glittering sky for the ceiling, the bushes our rug, and the dilapidated pavilion our bed. He lit up the place like a heart-warming hearth fire. He was the walls of my sanctuary, the food for my eyes, the scent of a home. He was everything.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000732473
The relationship between man and space is none other than dwelling, strictly thought and spoken.

Day after day,
Wander away,
Wandering still
Soul that canst soar!
Body may slumber:
Body shall cumber
Soul-flight no more.

Abode where lost bodies roam each searching for its lost one.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000578934

Memories drifting and piling up quietly, like letters on the doormat of an empty house.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000836177
For the bliss of the deep abode is not lightly abandoned in favor of the self-scattering of the wakened state,
Dwells Quotes : pic 001488371
Gloomy calm of idle vacancy.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000138181
There is hardly anything at all. His life is suddenly a large, empty house, with each vacant room waiting to be furnished. His made-up wife. His invented father. His pretend childhood. He wonders if it is possible to unlie yourself.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000024305
It would be good to live in a perpetual state of leave-taking, never to go nor to stay, but to remain suspended in that golden emotion of love and longing; to be loved without satiety.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001321034
Drab Habitation of Whom? Tabernacle or Tomb - or Dome of Worm - or Porch of Gnome - or some Elf's Catacomb?
Dwells Quotes : pic 001417203
Home - the nursery of the Infinite.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001608182
Absence becomes the greatest Presence.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001261396
It had been so brief a sojourn, not even a full century. He had been a guest in a mansion and he was not ungrateful. He was at once exhausted and refreshed. His stay was ended. Now he must gather up the shabby impedimenta of his mind and body and be on his way again.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001568341
Some sit and watch the life; some sail to the sea and the life watches them!
Dwells Quotes : pic 000761584
You do not feel like
dancing and there are no
daffodils,

only walls, your bedroom door, and the quiet
of the house, tucked asleep in the night's thick cover.
You wait for dawn. You wait for your

dreams. You wait in the night, and you hunger.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001264079
I smelled the clean house
and the wood-frame bed. It was all filler. The noise, the sound, they existed
just to take up space. My muscles flexed into the emptiness I still called home.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000051137
The stove, the bins, the cupboards, I had learned forever, make an inviolable throne room. From them I ruled; temporarily I controlled. I felt powerful, and I loved that feeling.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001094320
What remains is solitude.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000766911
There is moss on the walls and the stain of thought and failure and waiting
Dwells Quotes : pic 000503737
There are no permanent things, only fleeting moments of warmth and companionship, precious stationary seconds in a flicker of troubled days. The

Bound, elbow to elbow, darkness and night entered the dwelling.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000552339
[W]alking sometimes in a perfectly desolate plain where there have been no houses nor trees to guide me, I have been occasionally compelled to remain stationary for hours together, waiting till the rain came before continuing my journey.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000020907
We are the visitors in the lives of others; we visit them and we disappear!
Dwells Quotes : pic 000742462
Our abode in this world is transitory, our life therein is but a loan, our breaths are numbered and our indolence is manifest.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001709068
bliss. Practicing
Dwells Quotes : pic 001641145
Wonder, or wander?
Dwells Quotes : pic 001568160
I am not loitering" said the Major. "I am simply indulging in a few moments of pastoral solitude"...
Dwells Quotes : pic 000078434
There was cement in her soul. It had been there for a while, an early morning disease of fatigue, shapeless desires, brief imaginary glints of other lives she could be living, that over the months melded into a piercing homesickness.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000662589
Look, I am living. On what? Neither the childhood nor future/ grows any smaller ... Superabundant being/ wells up in my heart.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001093311
He who sits still in a house all the time may be the greatest vagrant of all; but the saunterer, in the good sense, is no more vagrant than the meandering river, which is all the while sedulously seeking the shortest course to the sea.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001651865
Haughtiness lives under the same roof with solitude.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000541725
Home is a place in the mind. When it is empty, it frets. It is fretful with memory, faces and places and times gone by. Beloved images rise up in disobedience and make a mirror for emptiness.
Dwells Quotes : pic 000008882
The inside must be made entirely calm and quiet and there should reign an upward aspiration - a state of awaiting.
Dwells Quotes : pic 001334847
There are apartments in the soul which have a glorious outlook; from whose windows you can see across the river of death, and into the shining city beyond; but how often are these neglected for the lower ones, which have earthward-looking windows.
