Pointed Arches

Famous quotes containing the words pointed and/or arches:

“There had been no thievery or venality. We had all simply wandered into a situation unthinkingly, trying to protect ourselves from what we saw as a political problem. Now, suddenly, it was like a Rorschach ink blot: others, looking at our actions, pointed out a pattern that we ourselves had not seen.”
—Richard M. Nixon (1913–1994)

“The lean cats of the arches of the churches,
That’s the old world. In the new, all men are priests.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
