Pierce Sessions Project

Famous quotes containing the words pierce and/or project:

    “... I have what no young man can have
    Because he loves too much.
    Words I have that can pierce the heart,
    But what can he do but touch?”
    Day-break and a candle end.

    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Indigenous to Minnesota, and almost completely ignored by its people, are the stark, unornamented, functional clusters of concrete—Minnesota’s grain elevators. These may be said to express unconsciously all the principles of modernism, being built for use only, with little regard for the tenets of esthetic design.
    —Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
