Augustus Welby Pugin Quote
Yet notwithstanding the palpable impracticability of adapting Greek temples to our climate, habits and religion, we see the attempt and failure continuously made and repeated; post office, theatre, church, bath, reading-room, hotel, methodist chapel and turnpike gate, all present the eternal sameness of a Grecian temple outraged in all its proportions and character.
