Cloud City

Famous quotes containing the words cloud and/or city:

    Humorists are always pessimists. They’re reactionaries: because they see that every golden cloud has a black lining.
    Christina Stead (1902–1983)

    The city is a fact in nature, like a cave, a run of mackerel or an ant-heap. But it is also a conscious work of art, and it holds within its communal framework many simpler and more personal forms of art. Mind takes form in the city; and in turn, urban forms condition mind.
    Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)
