Famous quotes containing the words tower and/or house:
“Culture is a sham if it is only a sort of Gothic front put on an iron building—like Tower Bridge—or a classical front put on a steel frame—like the Daily Telegraph building in Fleet Street. Culture, if it is to be a real thing and a holy thing, must be the product of what we actually do for a living—not something added, like sugar on a pill.”
—Eric Gill (1882–1940)
“It is written, “My house shall be called a house of prayer”; but you are making it a den of robbers.”
—Bible: New Testament, Matthew 21:13.
Jesus.
