Famous quotes containing the words buildings and/or opened:

    The desert is a natural extension of the inner silence of the body. If humanity’s language, technology, and buildings are an extension of its constructive faculties, the desert alone is an extension of its capacity for absence, the ideal schema of humanity’s disappearance.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.
    Bible: New Testament, Revelation 8:1.
