Famous quotes containing the words largest and/or cities:

    “We saw many straggling white pines, commonly unsound trees, which had therefore been skipped by the choppers; these were the largest trees we saw; and we occasionally passed a small wood in which this was the prevailing tree; but I did not notice nearly so many of these trees as I can see in a single walk in Concord.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Whilst we want cities as the centres where the best things are found, cities degrade us by magnifying trifles.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
