Construction work wanted

The folk in the middle / top of the pic are sitting on the pavement / sidewalk waiting for a construction job. Work is scarce. Sometimes they wait all day for no job.

Anyway, I found a couple of good quotes about construction that I thought would add some depth to the reader's enjoyment.

"The whole difference between construction and creation is exactly this: that a thing constructed can only be loved after it is constructed; but a thing created is loved before it exists." Charles Dickens

"Each of us is carving a stone, erecting a column, or cutting a piece of stained glass in the construction of something much bigger than ourselves." Adrienne Clarkson

"A human being is a being who is constantly 'under construction,' but also, in a parallel fashion, always in a state of constant destruction." Jose Saramago
