Famous quotes containing the words building, construction and/or management:
“Our civilization is characterized by the word “progress.” Progress is its form rather than making progress being one of its features. Typically it constructs.

For me on the contrary clarity, perspicuity are valuable in themselves.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
“Striving toward a goal puts a more pleasing construction on our advance toward death.”
