Trowbridge/architecture

Famous quotes containing the words trowbridge and/or architecture:

    And this is the moral—Stick to your sphere,
    Or if you insist, as you have a right,
    On spreading your wings for a loftier flight,
    The moral is—Take care how you light.
    —John Townsend Trowbridge (1827–1916)

    Polarized light showed the secret architecture of bodies; and when the second-sight of the mind is opened, now one color or form or gesture, and now another, has a pungency, as if a more interior ray had been emitted, disclosing its deep holdings in the frame of things.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
