The Monochrome Woods

“The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.”
― John Muir

The City Tower

“All cities are mad: but the madness is gallant. All cities are beautiful, but the beauty is grim.”
– Christopher Morley

Wings of the Woods

“Today I choose life. Every morning when I wake up I can choose joy, happiness, negativity, pain… To feel the freedom that comes from being able to continue to make mistakes and choices – today I choose to feel life, not to deny my humanity but embrace it.”
– Kevyn Aucoin

Twin Courts

“We build buildings which are terribly restless. And buildings don’t go anywhere. They shouldn’t be restless.”
– Minoru Yamasaki

An Old Thought under the Shade

“I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation, whose purposes are modeled after our own — a God, in short, who is but a reflection of human frailty. Neither can I believe that the individual survives the death of his body, although feeble souls harbor such thoughts through fear or ridiculous egotisms.”
― Albert Einstein

The Monochrome Jungle

“Without culture, and the relative freedom it implies, society, even when perfect, is but a jungle. This is why any authentic creation is a gift to the future.”
– Albert Camus

The Old Skyline

“Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.”
– Confucius

The City House and Tower

“A walk about Paris will provide lessons in history, beauty, and in the point of Life.”
– Thomas Jefferson.

Sacré-Cœur

“I had walked over to the window and was looking down at the rails of the Montmartre funicular, the gardens of the Sacré Cœur and, further off, the whole of Paris, with its lights, its roofs, its shadows.
Paths that cross, among those of thousands and thousands of people all over Paris, like countless little balls on a gigantic, electric billiard table, which occasionally bump into each other.
And nothing remained of this, not even the luminous trail a firefly leaves behind it.”

— Patrick Modiano

La Tour Eiffel

“I ought to be jealous of the tower. She is more famous than I am.”
― Gustave Eiffel
