Builders

When we build, let us think that we build
forever. Let it not be for present delight nor
for present use alone. Let it be such work as
our descendants will thank us for, and let us
think, as we lay stone on stone, that a time
is to come when those stones will be held
sacred because our hands have touched them,
and that men will say as they look upon the
labor and wrought substance of them, "See!
This our Fathers did for us."

      ~ John Ruskin
