Concrete Lanes

Famous quotes containing the words concrete and/or lanes:

    Babies are necessary to grown-ups. A new baby is like the beginning of all things—wonder, hope, a dream of possibilities. In a world that is cutting down its trees to build highways, losing its earth to concrete ... babies are almost the only remaining link with nature, with the natural world of living things from which we spring.
    Eda Le Shan (b. 1922)

    freeways fifty lanes wide
    on a concrete continent
    spaced with bland billboards
    illustrating imbecile illusions of happiness
    Lawrence Ferlinghetti (b. 1919)
