Still on my user picture updating quest...

Need help. Does anybody have any quotes that'd go well with this icon?

Edit: I suppose there's "Where are our castles now, where are our towers?", which is appropriate enough given the decrepit state of that poor building.

A bit long, but...

[cumaeansibyl.livejournal.com]

No live organism can continue for long to exist sanely under conditions of absolute reality; even larks and katydids ar supposed, by some, to dream. Hill House, not sane, stood by itself against its hills, holding darkness within; it had stood so for eighty years and might stand for eighty more. Within, walls continued upright, bricks met neatly, floors were firm, and doors were sensibly shut; silence lay steadily against the wood and stone of Hill House, and whatever walked there, walked alone.

-- Shirley Jackson, The Haunting of Hill House

I knew it was, but I just love that quote so much, and I thought of it right away... not that I'm morbid or anything.
