Sand Quotes

Nothing is built on stone; all is built on sand, but we must build as if the sand were stone.

Jorge Luis Borges

And yet, today the harbour is silted up, most of the city lies buried beneath sand dunes and the land has become a desert.

With no roots to hold the soil, and no attempt to conserve it, it was carried away by the wind and the rain.

Thomas Lovell Beddoes
