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)

    For it is not metres, but a metre-making argument, that makes a poem,—a thought so passionate and alive, that, like the spirit of a plant or an animal, it has an architecture of its own, and adorns nature with a new thing.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
