Capital Cities

Famous quotes containing the words capital and/or cities:

“A good many have been thrown out on their broad capital bases.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)

“In great cities men are brought together by the desire of gain. They are not in a state of co-operation, but of isolation, as to the making of fortunes; and for all the rest they are careless of neighbours. Christianity teaches us to love our neighbour as ourself; modern society acknowledges no neighbour.”
—Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)
