“Every wall is a door.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Sometimes we stare so long at a door that is closing that we see too late the one that is open.”
Alexander Graham Bell
“Don't spend time beating on a wall, hoping to transform it into a door.”
Coco Chanel
“A narrative is like a room on whose walls a number of false doors have been painted; while within the narrative, we have many apparent choices of exit, but when the author leads us to one particular door, we know it is the right one because it opens.”
John Updike
“Before I built a wall I'd ask to know What I was walling in or walling out, And to whom I was like to give offense”
Robert Frost
“And against the wall of the house he built chambers round about, against the walls of the house round about, both of the temple and of the oracle: and he made chambers round about: / The nethermost chamber was five cubits broad, and the middle was six cubits broad, and the third was seven cubits broad: for without in the wall of the house he made narrowed rests round about, that the beams should not be fastened in the walls of the house.”
Bible
“The window busted, and the door got sucked out. I looked at my grandmother, and the walls were like Jell-O. The trailer was rocking back and forth. I jumped between the coffee table and couch, and I remember the trailer tipping.”
