City Light

Famous quotes containing the words city and/or light:

“No one would know except for ancient maps
That such a brook ran water. But I wonder
If from its being kept forever under,
The thoughts may not have risen that so keep
This new-built city from both work and sleep.”

“When they turn the sun
on again I’ll plant children
under it, I’ll light up my soul
with a match and let it sing....”
