Famous quotes containing the words city and/or lines:
“London ... remains a mans city where New York is chiefly a womans. London has whole streets that cater to mens wants. It has its great solid phalanx of fortress clubs.”

“... when I awake in the middle of the night, since I knew not where I was, I did not even know at first who I was; I only had in the first simplicity the feeling of existing as it must quiver in an animal.... I spent one second above the centuries of civilization, and the confused glimpse of the gas lamps, then of the shirts with turned-down collars, recomposed, little by little, the original lines of my self.”
—Marcel Proust (18711922)
