Quotes about Edifice

- Charles Dickens
The present is an edifice which God cannot rebuild.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
Truth must be the foundation stone, the cement to solidify the entire social edifice.

But the prophets and apostles are the foundations because their authority bears up our weakness.
- Jan Hus
