Famous quotes containing the words national and/or building:

    Just so before we’re international,
    We’re national and act as nationals.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    I love art, and I love history, but it is living art and living history that I love.... It is in the interest of living art and living history that I oppose so-called restoration. What history can there be in a building bedaubed with ornament, which cannot at the best be anything but a hopeless and lifeless imitation of the hope and vigour of the earlier world?
    William Morris (1834–1896)
