Famous quotes containing the words listed and/or buildings:

    “I could I trust starve like a gentleman. It’s listed as part of the poetic training, you know.”
    —Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    “The desert is a natural extension of the inner silence of the body. If humanity’s language, technology, and buildings are an extension of its constructive faculties, the desert alone is an extension of its capacity for absence, the ideal schema of humanity’s disappearance.”
    —Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
