Famous quotes containing the words build and/or project:

    The eyes, opening and shutting like keyholes
    and never forgetting, recording by thousands,
    the skull with its brains like eels
    the tablet of the world
    the bones and their joints
    that build and break for any trick....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
