“We have to discard the past / and, as one builds / floor by floor, window by window, / and the building rises, / so do we keep shedding - first, broken tiles, / then proud doors... and each new day / gleams / like an empty / plate.” FirstsPastDoorsBuildingBrokenProudWindowEmptyPlatesRenewalNew DayGleamTilesEach New Day Book:I explain a few things: selected poems Source: I explain a few things: selected poems
“If I freely may discover What should please me in my lover, I would have her fair and witty, Savouring more of court than city; A little proud, but full of pity; Light and humorous in her toying, Oft building hopes, and soon destroying, Long, but sweet in the enjoying; Neither too easy nor to hard; All extremes I would have barr'd.” IfsLoveShouldMayLittlesLongHardLightEasyEnjoyCitiesBuildingSweetProudLoversPleaseHumorousFairsCourtWittyExtremesPityDestroyingPlease MeMy Lover Book:Delphi Complete Works of Ben Jonson (Illustrated) Source: Delphi Complete Works of Ben Jonson (Illustrated)

“It was a proud moment in giving me the confidence, that I was 'stamped' in the offices as much, you know, as I would get from the streets.

“I'm afraid what we are building today will not have the same impact and sustainability of the architecture of a 100, 500 or 1,000 years ago. The buildings of those days were miracles. We don't perform such miracles today. So we should be a little more modest. For my part, I'll be glad to show one of my buildings one day to my grandchildren and say: I'm proud of that.” ShouldYearsLittlesShowsTodayBuildingProudOne DayYears AgoMiracleImpactArchitectureGladSustainabilityModestGrandchildrenMy Grandchildren Author:Zhang Xin

“Diversity means, when the left teaches it, the people responsible for building America and maintaining it get the short end of the stick from now on. With this singular American culture that people came and wanted to be part of, they were proud, couldn't wait to become Americans, tears in their eyes when it happened. It was a special place. Defending it now, defending that America, defending our cultural, defending our founding, defending all of the things that made this country great is now called racism or xenophobia or hate.” PeopleMeanMadeEndsCountryEyeWantedAmericaHateCultureLeftWaitingTeachHappenedSpecialTearsBuildingProudDiversityRacismResponsibleSticksFoundingMaintainingAmerican CultureXenophobiaSpecial Places Author:Rush Limbaugh
