City Green

Famous quotes containing the words city and/or green:

“The farmhouse lingers, though averse to square
With the new city street it has to wear
A number in. But what about the brook
That held the house as in an elbow-crook?”

“Time shall not murder you,” He said,
“Nor the green nought be hurt;
Who could hack out your unsucked heart,
O green and unborn and undead?”
I saw time murder me.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
