Renaissance Center Tower

Famous quotes containing the words renaissance, center and/or tower:

It’s a new kind of togetherness which may seem totally alien, but it’s the togetherness of modern technology.”
—J.G. (James Graham)

“My center is giving way, my right is in retreat; situation excellent. I shall attack.”
