City Lines

Famous quotes containing the words city and/or lines:

    The great city is that which has the greatest man or woman:
    If it be a few ragged huts, it is still the greatest city in the whole
    world.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    Who will in fairest book of Nature know
    How virtue may best lodged in beauty be,
    Let him but learn of love to read in thee,
    Stella, those fair lines which true goodness show.
    There shall he find all vices’ overthrow,
    Not by rude force, but sweetest sovereignty
    Of reason,
    Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)
