Famous quotes containing the words trowbridge and/or population:

    And this is the moral—Stick to your sphere,

    On spreading your wings for a loftier flight,
    The moral is—Take care how you light.
    —John Townsend Trowbridge (1827–1916)

    I think that cars today are almost the exact equivalent of the great Gothic cathedrals: I mean the supreme creation of an era, conceived with passion by unknown artists, and consumed in image if not in usage by a whole population which appropriates them as a purely magical object.
    Roland Barthes (1915–1980)
