David Gill

Famous quotes containing the words david and/or gill:

    Time hides no treasures; we want not its then, but its now.
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    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)
