Classical World

Famous quotes containing the words classical and/or world:

    “Culture is a sham if it is only a sort of Gothic front put on an iron building—like Tower Bridge—or a classical front put on a steel frame—like the Daily Telegraph building in Fleet Street. Culture, if it is to be a real thing and a holy thing, must be the product of what we actually do for a living—not something added, like sugar on a pill.”
    —Eric Gill (1882–1940)

    “France may claim the happiest marriages in the world, but the happiest divorces in the world are “made in America.””
    —Helen Rowland (1875–1950)
