Called City

Famous quotes containing the words called and/or city:

    He loved strange thought
    And knew that sweet extremity of pride
    That’s called platonic love,
    And that to such a pitch of passion wrought
    Nothing could bring him, when his lady died,
    Anodyne for his love.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The Great Society is a place where every child can find knowledge to enrich his mind and to enlarge his talents.... It is a place where the city of man serves not only the needs of the body and the demands of commerce but the desire for beauty and the hunger for community.... It is a place where men are more concerned with the quality of their goals than the quantity of their goods.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
