Thought for today:
“When the good people of Beauvais were building their cathedral, the cathedral of Amiens, was just
completed. It excited the admiration of all France.
"Well, the people of
Beauvais, in their jealousy and determination to beat the people of Amiens, set
to work to build a tower to their own cathedral as high as they possibly could.
They built it so high that it tumbled down. They were never able to finish
their cathedral at all. It stands a
wreck to this day. A tribute to their vain quest for glory.”
