Famous quotes containing the words instruction, set and/or architecture:

    And, fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
    Bible: New Testament, Ephesians 6:4.

    Let us speak, though we show all our faults and weaknesses,—for it is a sign of strength to be weak, to know it, and out with it,—not in a set way and ostentatiously, though, but incidentally and without premeditation.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    It seems a fantastic paradox, but it is nevertheless a most important truth, that no architecture can be truly noble which is not imperfect.
    John Ruskin (1819–1900)
