Centre Street

Famous quotes containing the words centre and/or street:

“Old politicians, like old actors, revive in the limelight. The vacancy which afflicts them in private momentarily lifts when, once more, they feel the eyes of an audience upon them. Their old passion for holding the centre of the stage guides their uncertain footsteps to where the footlights shine, and summons up a wintry smile when the curtain rises.”
—Malcolm Muggeridge (1903–1990)

“Fine society is only a self-protection against the vulgarities of the street and tavern.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
