Famous quotes containing the words security and/or architecture:

    To have in general but little feeling, seems to be the only security against feeling too much on any particular occasion.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    I don’t think of form as a kind of architecture. The architecture is the result of the forming. It is the kinesthetic and visual sense of position and wholeness that puts the thing into the realm of art.
    Roy Lichtenstein (b. 1923)
