Famous quotes containing the words population of, population, main and/or cities:

    “The population of the world is a conditional population; these are not the best, but the best that could live in the existing state of soils, gases, animals, and morals: the best that could yet live; there shall be a better, please God.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “In our large cities, the population is godless, materialized,—no bond, no fellow-feeling, no enthusiasm. These are not men, but hungers, thirsts, fevers, and appetites walking. How is it people manage to live on,—so aimless as they are? After their peppercorn aims are gained, it seems as if the lime in their bones alone held them together, and not any worthy purpose.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Men enter by force, drawn back like Jonah
    into their fleshy mothers.
    A woman is her mother.
    That’s the main thing.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “An architect should live as little in cities as a painter. Send him to our hills, and let him study there what nature understands by a buttress, and what by a dome.”
    —John Ruskin (1819–1900)
