Famous quotes containing the words show and/or building:
“Their looks show that they’re for it:
Ash hair, toad hands, prune face dried into lines
How can they ignore it?”

“The rage for road building is beneficent for America, where vast distance is so main a consideration in our domestic politics and trade, inasmuch as the great political promise of the invention is to hold the Union staunch, whose days already seem numbered by the mere inconvenience of transporting representatives, judges and officers across such tedious distances of land and water.”
