Cloud City

Famous quotes containing the words cloud and/or city:

    “These boys who love their mother
    who loves men, who passes on
    her sons to other women;

    The cloud across the sky. The windy pines.
    the trickle gurgle in the swampy meadow

    this is our body.”
    —Gary Snyder (b. 1930)

    “This city is neither a jungle nor the moon.... In long shot: a cosmic smudge, a conglomerate of bleeding energies. Close up, it is a fairly legible printed circuit, a transistorized labyrinth of beastly tracks, a data bank for asthmatic voice-prints.”
    —Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
