Famous quotes containing the words largest and/or cities:

    “Because it is in the nature of things that they become extreme, we have passed down from manliness to cruelty. If I had been told when I was 20 that there was a tavern in the town where the brave and the cruel were gathered together, I would have run all the way and I would have gone up to the largest and leatheriest of the denizens and said: “If you truly love me, kill the bartender.””
    —Quentin Crisp (b. 1908)

    “We are in danger ... of making our cities places where business goes on but where life, in its real sense, is lost.”
    —Hubert H. Humphrey (1911–1978)
