“When we build, let us think that we build forever… let us think, as we lay stone on stone, that a time is to come when those stones will be held sacred because our hands have touched them…”
John Ruskin, Art Critic
“A man who works with his hands is a labourer, a man who works with his hands and his head is a craftsman, a man who works with his hands and his head and his heart is an artist.”
Louis Nizer
“A pile of rock ceases to be a pile of rock the moment someone contemplates it, who bears within themselves the image of a cathedral...”
