Famous quotes containing the words city and/or centre:

    “A wholly materialistic city is nothing but a dream incarnate. Venice is the world’s unconscious, a miser’s glittering hoard, guarded by a Beast whose eyes are made of white agate, and by a saint who is really a prince who has just slain a dragon.”
    —Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)

    “To make our idea of morality centre on forbidden acts is to defile the imagination and to introduce into our judgments of our fellow-men a secret element of gusto.”
    —Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
