Famous quotes containing the words landscape and/or architecture:

    “When it comes, the Landscape listens—
    Shadows—hold their breath—
    When it goes, ‘tis like the Distance
    On the look of Death—”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    “Polarized light showed the secret architecture of bodies; and when the second-sight of the mind is opened, now one color or form or gesture, and now another, has a pungency, as if a more interior ray had been emitted, disclosing its deep holdings in the frame of things.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
