Famous quotes containing the words art and/or architecture:
“It is art that makes life, makes interest, makes importance ... and I know of no substitute whatever for the force and beauty of its process.”

“And when his hours are numbered, and the world
Is all his own, retiring, as he were not,
Leaves, when the sun appears, astonished Art
To mimic in slow structures, stone by stone,
Built in an age, the mad wind’s night-work,
The frolic architecture of the snow.”
