“Seeing that picture, for me, was like Chartres Cathedral.”
Henry Moore
“He who has seen one cathedral ten times has seen something; he who has seen ten cathedrals once has seen but little; and he who has spent half an hour in each of a hundred cathedrals has seen nothing at all.”
Sinclair Lewis
“Inside, the cathedral is a Gothic forest dappled in violet twilight and vast with quiet.”
Wendy Insinger
“A pile of rocks ceases to be a rock when somebody contemplates it with the idea of a cathedral in mind.”
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
“A cathedral, a wave of a storm, a dancer's leap, never turn out to be as high as we had hoped”
Marcel Proust
“Regard it as just as desirable to build a chicken house as to build a cathedral.”
Frank Lloyd Wright
“The old cathedrals are good, but the great blue dome that hangs over everything is better.”
Thomas Carlyle
