Famous quotes containing the words city and/or walls:
“I come from the city of Boston,
The home of the bean and the cod,”
—John Collins Bossidy (1860–1928)
“Though it seems improbable on the face of it
You must master the huge retards and have faith in the slow
Blossoming of haystacks, stairways, walls of convolvulus,
Until the moon can do no more. Exhausted,
You get out of bed. Your project is completed
Though the experiment is a mess.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
