Foreign Residents

Famous quotes containing the words foreign and/or residents:

“The force of a language does not consist of rejecting what is foreign but of swallowing it.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

“In most nineteenth-century cities, both large and small, more than 50 percent—and often up to 75 percent—of the residents in any given year were no longer there ten years later. People born in the twentieth century are much more likely to live near their birthplace than were people born in the nineteenth century.”
—Stephanie Coontz (20th century)
