“Of course I'd like to get beyond the concrete. But it's really difficult. Very difficult.”
Krzysztof Kieslowski
“The terrain there is very rough. It's riddled with concrete and rocks. It's difficult to walk on, let alone run on.”
Richard Kite
“It will be much more difficult for politicians not to take concrete action when that comes out.”
Dale Marshall
“It's like if you plant something in the concrete and if it grow and the rose petal got all kinda scratches and marks, you ain't gonna say "damn, look at all the scratches and marks on the rose that grew from the concrete.." you gonna be like "DAMN! a ROSE grew from the CONCRETE?"”
Tupac Shakur
“we wouldn't ask why a rose that grew from the concrete for having damaged petals, in turn, we would all celebrate its tenacity, we would all love its will to reach the sun, well, we are the roses, this is the concrete and these are my damaged petals, dont ask me why, thank god, and ask me how”
“Love, like truth and beauty, is concrete. Love is not fundamentally a sweet feeling; not, at heart, a matter of sentiment, attachment, or being "drawn toward." Love is active, effective, a matter of making reciprocal and mutually beneficial relation with one's friends and enemies. Love creates righteousness, or justice, here on earth. To make love is to make justice. As advocates and activists for justice know, loving involves struggle, resistance, risk. People working today on behalf of women, blacks, lesbians and gay men, the aging, the poor in this country and elsewhere know that making justice is not a warm,”
Carter Heyward
“Clearly, then, the city is not a concrete jungle, it is a human zoo.”
Desmond Morris
