House of the Lifting of the Head

Again, from Olson:

"...MASONRY is especially associated with MYTH in man. The tale of the Great Tower is as ultimate a legend as the Flood, Eden, Adam."

"...this need of man to persist in monument as well as in myth."

Kafka:
"If it had been possible to build the tower of Babel without ascending it, the work would have been permitted."
