Concrete Arch Bridge

Famous quotes containing the words concrete, arch and/or bridge:

“Poetry presents indivisible wholes of human consciousness, modified and ordered by the stringent requirements of form. Prose, aiming at a definite and concrete goal, generally suppresses everything inessential to its purpose; poetry, existing only to exhibit itself as an aesthetic object, aims only at completeness and perfection of form.”
—Richard Harter Fogle, U.S. critic, educator. The Imagery of Keats and Shelley, ch. 1, University of North Carolina Press (1949)

“An arch never sleeps.”
—East Indian saying.

“What need the bridge much broader than the flood?”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
