Ghost Towns

Famous quotes containing the words ghost and/or towns:

    “The work is done,” grown old he thought,
    “According to my boyish plan;
    Let the fools rage, I swerved in nought,
    Something to perfection brought;”
    But louder sang that ghost “What then?”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Glorious, stirring sight! The poetry of motion! The real way to travel! The only way to travel! Here today—in next week tomorrow! Villages skipped, towns and cities jumped—always somebody else’s horizons! O bliss! O poop- poop! O my! O my!
    Kenneth Grahame (1859–1932)
