Saint John Bridge

Famous quotes containing the words saint and/or bridge:

    “Ce corps qui s’appelait et qui s’appelle encore le saint empire romain n’était en aucune manière ni saint, ni romain, ni empire. This agglomeration which called itself and still calls itself the Holy Roman Empire was in no way holy, nor Roman, nor an empire.”
    —Voltaire [François Marie Arouet] (1694–1778)

    “A circle swoop, and a quick parabola under the bridge arches
    Where light pushes through;
    A sudden turning upon itself of a thing in the air.
    A dip to the water.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
