Cloud City

Famous quotes containing the words cloud and/or city:

    That which is given to see
    At any moment is the residue, shadowed
    In gold or emerging into the clear bluish haze
    Of uncertainty. We come back to ourselves
    Through the rubbish of cloud and tree-spattered pavement.
    These days stand like vapor under the trees.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    The faults of the burglar are the qualities of the financier: the manners and habits of a duke would cost a city clerk his situation.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
