It’s what you sow that multiplies, not what you keep in the barn.
I guess the difference between Gin and me is that when Gin got shut in the barn she thought Edmond didn't love her anymore but because I could feel Edmond out there somewhere always loving me I didn't have to howl all night.
Garages, barns and attics are always older than the buildings to which they are attached.
I was obsessed with livestock barns, cattle and hogs. I still love that, and I still do that as a hobby. So I'm a strange person.
When the cold comes to New England it arrives in sheets of sleet and ice. In December, the wind wraps itself around bare trees and twists in between husbands and wives asleep in their beds. It shakes the shingles from the roofs and sifts through cracks in the plaster. The only green things left are the holly bushes and the old boxwood hedges in the village, and these are often painted white with snow. Chipmunks and weasels come to nest in basements and barns; owls find their way into attics. At night,the dark is blue and bluer still, as sapphire of night.
The moon is brighter since the barn burned.
You got barn cats and you want to make them tamed, you need to get them as kittens.
Barn's burnt down. . . now I can see the moon.
Any jackass can kick down a barn, but it takes a good carpenter to build one.

The crooks downtown figured out that comedy is like a hammer. It can put up a barn and it can knock down a wall. So they bought it outright and marketed it as Comedy Central.
Do I enjoy features? Yeah, I really do. Would I like to do some more features before I head to the barn? Yeah, probably. But I also love television. I love doing television because it's fast, and that I like a lot.

If Christ can die in a barn, I think the death of a human in a van is not so bad.
The principle factor in my success has been an absolute desire to draw constantly. I never decided to be an artist. Simply, I couldn't stop myself from drawing. I drew for my own pleasure. I never wanted to know whether or not someone liked my drawings. I have never kept one of my drawings. I drew on walls, the school blackboard, odd bits of paper, the walls of barns. Today I'm still as fond of drawings as when I was a kid - and that was a long time ago - but, surprising as it may seem, I never thought about the money I would receive for my drawings. I simply drew them.
If a farmer fills his barn with grain, he gets mice. If he leaves it empty, he gets actors.
You are the one. Solid the spaces lean on, envious. You are the baby in the barn.
Poor worms, they hiss at me, whilst I at home Can be contented to applaud myself,. . . with joy To see how plump my bags are and my barns.
God's people are not to accumulate stuff for tomorrow but to share indiscriminately with the scandalous and holy confidence that God will provide for tomorrow. Then we need not stockpile stuff in barns or a 401(k), especially when there is someone in need.
I have a big barn that I converted to my music studio, so I go there early in the morning and the first thing I do is rowing. And that's when I listen to a lot of music.
