Famous quotes containing the words window and/or construction:

    “If a man was tossed out of a window when an infant, and so made a cripple for life, or scared out of his wits by the Indians, it is regretted chiefly because he was thus incapacitated for—business! I think that there is nothing, not even crime, more opposed to poetry, to philosophy, ay, to life itself, than this incessant business.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “There’s no art
    To find the mind’s construction in the face:
    He was a gentleman on whom I built
    An absolute trust.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
