Famous quotes containing the words cloud and/or city:
“Not for no cold did freeze,
Nor any cloud beguile
Th’eternal flowering spring,”
—Torquato Tasso (1544–1595)
“The language of the younger generation ... has the brutality of the city and an assertion of threatening power at hand, not to come. It is military, theatrical, and at its most coherent probably a lasting repudiation of empty courtesy and bureaucratic euphemism.”
—Elizabeth Hardwick (b. 1916)
