Called World

Famous quotes containing the words called and/or world:

    “It is sometimes called the City of Magnificent Distances, but it might with greater propriety be termed the City of Magnificent Intentions.... Spacious avenues, that begin in nothing, and lead nowhere; streets, mile-long, that only want houses, roads, and inhabitants; public buildings that need but a public to be complete; and ornaments of great thoroughfares, which only lack great thoroughfares to ornament—are its leading features.”
    —Charles Dickens (1812–1870)

    “All the world loves a clown.”
    —Cole Porter (1893–1964)
