Bridge Design

Famous quotes containing the words bridge and/or design:

    “Crime seems to change character when it crosses a bridge or a tunnel. In the city, crime is taken as emblematic of class and race. In the suburbs, though, it’s intimate and psychological—resistant to generalization, a mystery of the individual soul.”
    —Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)

    “If I knew for a certainty that a man was coming to my house with the conscious design of doing me good, I should run for my life ... for fear that I should get some of his good done to me,—some of its virus mingled with my blood.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
