'Everybody builds but no one maintains'

"There is something evocative about ruins--particularly recent ones."
~ Joel Knight in Calico Black, Calico Blue

"Ever since I was 2, I've loved octopuses, monsters, abandoned buildings."
~ China Miéville, English fantasy fiction writer

"Another flaw in the human character is that everybody wants to build and no one wants to do maintenance."
~ Kurrt Vonnegut, in Hocus Pocus
