Castle Quotes

A castle called Doubting Castle, the owner whereof was Giant Despair.

A man's home may be his castle on the outside; inside, it is more often his nursery.

Clare Booth Luce

A man's home may seem to be his castle on the outside; inside, it is more often his nursery

The Angel of Death has been abroad throughout the land; you may almost hear the beating of his wings. There is no one, as when the first-born were slain of old, to sprinkle with blood the lintel and the two side-posts of our doors, that he may spare and pass on; he takes his victims from the castle of the noble, the mansion of the wealthy, and the cottage of the poor and lowly.

John Bright

Everything comes to an end, reader. It is an old truism to which may be added that not everything that lasts, lasts for long. This latter part is not readily admitted; on the contrary the idea that an air castle lasts longer than the very air of which it is made is hard to get out of a person's head, and this is fortunate, otherwise the custom of making those almost eternal constructions might be lost.

Joaquim Maria Machado de Assis

The mistletoe hung in the castle hall, The holly-branch shone on the old oak wall.

Thomas Haynes Bayly
