Iron Core

Famous quotes containing the words iron and/or core:

    Morality, a muzzle for the will; logic, a climbing iron for the mind.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    True, there are architects so called in this country, and I have heard of one at least possessed with the idea of making architectural ornaments have a core of truth, a necessity, and hence a beauty, as if it were a revelation to him. All very well perhaps from his point of view, but only a little better than the common dilettantism.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
