Clock Town

Famous quotes containing the words clock and/or town:

“The source of poetry that
seeing the clock stopped, says,
The clock has stopped

that ticked yesterday so well?”
—William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)

“Americans living in Latin American countries are often more snobbish than the Latins themselves. The typical American has quite a bit of money by Latin American standards, and he rarely sees a countryman who doesn’t. An American businessman who would think nothing of being seen in a sport shirt on the streets of his home town will be shocked and offended at a suggestion that he appear in Rio de Janeiro, for instance, in anything but a coat and tie.”
—Hunter S. Thompson (b. 1939)
