Build Numbers Starting

Famous quotes containing the words build, numbers and/or starting:

    “Poetry is the supreme fiction, madame.
    Take the moral law and make a nave of it
    And from the nave build haunted heaven. Thus,
    The conscience is converted into palms,
    Like windy citherns hankering for hymns.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “Individually, museums are fine institutions, dedicated to the high values of preservation, education and truth; collectively, their growth in numbers points to the imaginative death of this country.”
    —Robert Hewison (b. 1943)

    “But even at the starting post, all sleek and new,
    I saw the wildness in her and I thought
    A vision of terror that it must live through
    Had shattered her soul.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
