5 Architecture

  • 1. The ancient Romans built their greatest masterpieces of architecture their amphitheaters for wild beasts to fight in.
  • 2. All the revision in the world will not save a bad first draft: for the architecture of the thing comes or fails to come in the first conception and revision only affects the detail and ornament alas!
