Famous quotes containing the word construction:

    “The construction of life is at present in the power of facts far more than convictions.”
    —Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)

    “When the leaders choose to make themselves bidders at an auction of popularity, their talents, in the construction of the state, will be of no service. They will become flatterers instead of legislators; the instruments, not the guides, of the people.”
    —Edmund Burke (1729–1797)

    “No construction stiff working overtime takes more stress and straining than we did just to stay high.”
    —Gus Van Sant, U.S. screenwriter and director, and Dan Yost. Bob Hughes (Matt Dillon)
