Leaning Water Tower

Famous quotes containing the words leaning, water and/or tower:

    And then I ran to get away,
    But when I stopped and turned to see,
    The tree was bending to the side
    And leaning out to look at me.
    Elizabeth Madox Roberts (1880–1941)

    When people are true friends, even shared water tastes sweet.
    Chinese proverb.

    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)
