Build Numbers Starting

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

    I would build my house of crystal,
    With a solitary friend,
    Where the cold cracks like a pistol
    And the needle stands on end.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    What culture lacks is the taste for anonymous, innumerable germination. Culture is smitten with counting and measuring; it feels out of place and uncomfortable with the innumerable; its efforts tend, on the contrary, to limit the numbers in all domains; it tries to count on its fingers.
    Jean Dubuffet (1901–1985)

    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)
