Ghost Towns

Famous quotes containing the words ghost and/or towns:

    ‘Dear Captain Smith,’ the ghost replied, ‘you’ve used me ungenteelly.
    The crowner’s quest goes hard with me because I’ve acted frailly,
    And Parson Biggs won’t bury me, though I am dead Miss Bailey.’
    George Colman (1762–1836)

    We do not concern ourselves about being esteemed in towns through which we pass. But if we are to remain a while there, we are so concerned. How long is necessary? A time commensurate with our vain and paltry life.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
