Famous quotes containing the words square and/or wave:
“This house was designed and constructed with the freedom of stroke of a forester’s axe, without other compass and square than Nature uses.”

“As the bird trims her to the gale,
I trim myself to the storm of time,
I man the rudder, reef the sail,
Obey the voice at eve obeyed in prime:
“Lowly faithful, banish fear,
Right onward drive unharmed;
The port, well worth the cruise, is near,
And every wave is charmed.””
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
