“Cities need old buildings so badly it is probably impossible for vigorous streets and districts to grow without them.... for really new ideas of any kindno matter how ultimately profitable or otherwise successful some of them might prove to bethere is no leeway for such chancy trial, error and experimentation in the high-overhead economy of new construction. Old ideas can sometimes use new buildings. New ideas must use old buildings.”

Pour out the Virgin and Saints, twist and untwist
The mortal youth of Christ astride an ass.”

if you are lost
what is Naxos, Tinos, Andros,
and Delos, the clasp
of the white necklace?”
