Famous quotes containing the words city and/or destroyed:
“A city built upon mud;
A culture built upon profit;
Free speech nipped in the bud,
The minority always guilty.
Why should I want to go back
To you, Ireland, my Ireland?”
—Louis MacNeice (1907–1963)
“For both faith and want of faith have destroyed men alike.”
—Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)
