Famous quotes containing the words iron and/or gate:

    “Culture is a sham if it is only a sort of Gothic front put on an iron building—like Tower Bridge—or a classical front put on a steel frame—like the Daily Telegraph building in Fleet Street. Culture, if it is to be a real thing and a holy thing, must be the product of what we actually do for a living—not something added, like sugar on a pill.”
    —Eric Gill (1882–1940)

    “Pale Death beats equally at the poor man’s gate and at the palaces of kings.”
    —Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (65–8 B.C.)
