Famous quotes containing the words desert and/or cities:
“The air deals blows: surely too hard, too often?
No: it is bent on bringing summer down.
Dead leaves desert in thousands, outwards, upwards,
Numerous as birds; but the birds fly away....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“We are in danger ... of making our cities places where business goes on but where life, in its real sense, is lost.”
