Famous quotes containing the words builders and/or amateur:

    “As we are, so we do; and as we do, so it is done to us; we are the builders of our fortunes.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “The true gardener then brushes over the ground with slow and gentle hand, to liberate a space for breath round some favourite; but he is not thinking about destruction except incidentally. It is only the amateur like myself who becomes obsessed and rejoices with a sadistic pleasure in weeds that are big and bad enough to pull, and at last, almost forgetting the flowers altogether, turns into a Reformer.”
    —Freya Stark (1893–1993)
