Famous quotes containing the words construction and/or architecture:

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

    Polarized light showed the secret architecture of bodies; and when the second-sight of the mind is opened, now one color or form or gesture, and now another, has a pungency, as if a more interior ray had been emitted, disclosing its deep holdings in the frame of things.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
