“We fight, get beat, rise, and fight again.”
Nathanael Greene
“Yet would we die as some have done, beating a way for the rising sun.”
Arna Bontemps
“We grew up in the Clear Lake area. We have seen the communities fight to keep high-rises out, especially in Nassau Bay, but the market is very strong because of the waterfront property.”
Mark Smith
“The hero is not fed on sweets, Daily his own heart he eats; Chambers of the great are jails, And head-winds right for royal sails. Held we fall to rise, are baffled to fight better, sleep to wake.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Salem is lucky because we don't have any significant high rises. Low-rise buildings seem to fair better. We seem to have lots of single- and two-story buildings, which all fare well. Most of the structures in the city are framed with wood, which seem resistant in the event of an earthquake. Older, steel buildings tend to fall apart quicker. Wood is flexible. Salem would probably fare very well, other than the downtown area.”
Tom Phillips
“Consumption continues to rise on higher farm incomes, rising employment and increasing consumer loans. Still, rising material costs slowed construction.”
Ampon Kittiampon
“Rising metal prices and continuing cash generation are helping mining stocks to rise. ... [Equities] have been lagging the latest upturn in commodity prices and this is starting to feed though.”
