City Residents

Famous quotes containing the words city and/or residents:

    The city is all right. To live in one
    Is to be civilized, stay up and read
    Or sing and dance all night and see sunrise
    By waiting up instead of getting up.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Most of the folktales dealing with the Indians are lurid and romantic. The story of the Indian lovers who were refused permission to wed and committed suicide is common to many places. Local residents point out cliffs where Indian maidens leaped to their death until it would seem that the first duty of all Indian girls was to jump off cliffs.
