Famous quotes containing the words david and/or williams:

    True, there are architects so called in this country, and I have heard of one at least possessed with the idea of making architectural ornaments have a core of truth, a necessity, and hence a beauty, as if it were a revelation to him. All very well perhaps from his point of view, but only a little better than the common dilettantism.
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The business of love is
    cruelty which,
    by our wills,
    we transform
    to live together.
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
