The credulity of dupes is as inexhaustible as the invention of knaves

I see architecture not as Gropius did, as a moral venture, as truth, but as invention, in the same way that poetry or music or painting is invention.
Michael Graves

David Borden
Painting is not for me either decorative amusement, or the plastic invention of felt reality; it must be every time: invention, discovery, revelation.
Max Ernst
The market is not an invention of capitalism. It has existed for centuries. It is an invention of civilization.

Agatha Christie

The patent application was to protect our invention. As you can see . . . the invention is significant.
Craig McHugh

Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer. Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza.
