“... I see the green earth covered with the works of man or with the ruins of men’s work. The pyramids weigh down the earth, the tower of Babel has pierced the sky, the lovely temples and the gray castles have fallen into ruins. But of all those things which hands have built, what hasn’t fallen nor ever will fall? Dear friends, throw away the trowel and mortarboard! Throw your masons’ aprons over your heads and lie down to build dreams! What are temples of stone and clay to the soul? Learn to build eternal mansions of dreams and visions!” MenSoulDreamHandsEarthLyingFallVisionSkyEternalBuiltStonesGreenDearLovelyRuinsFallenTemplesCoveredGrayTowersClayCastlesPyramidsMansionsDear FriendMasonsGreen EarthBabelApronsTower Of Babel Author:Selma Lagerlöf
