Famous quotes containing the words window and/or construction:

    “A big leather-bound volume makes an ideal razorstrap. A thin book is useful to stick under a table with a broken caster to steady it. A large, flat atlas can be used to cover a window with a broken pane. And a thick, old-fashioned heavy book with a clasp is the finest thing in the world to throw at a noisy cat.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    “Striving toward a goal puts a more pleasing construction on our advance toward death.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
