City Lines

Famous quotes containing the words city and/or lines:

    “Thought is barred in this City of Dreadful Joy and conversation is unknown.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    “To understand
    The signs that stars compose, we need depend
    Only on stars that are entirely there
    And the apparent space between them. There
    Never need be lines between them, puzzling
    Our sense of what is what.”
    —John Hollander (b. 1929)
