York Renaissance

Famous quotes containing the words york and/or renaissance:

    A hundred times have I thought New York is a catastrophe ... it is a beautiful catastrophe.
    Le Corbusier [Charle Édouard Jeanne] (1887–1965)

    People nowadays like to be together not in the old-fashioned way of, say, mingling on the piazza of an Italian Renaissance city, but, instead, huddled together in traffic jams, bus queues, on escalators and so on. It’s a new kind of togetherness which may seem totally alien, but it’s the togetherness of modern technology.
    —J.G. (James Graham)
