Famous quotes containing the words granite and/or city:

    “We placed the wreaths upon the splended granite sarcophagus, and at its feet, and felt that only the earthly robe we loved so much was there. The pure, tender, loving spirit which loved us so tenderly, is above us—loving us, praying for us, and free from all suffering and woe—yes, that is a comfort, and that first birthday in another world must have been a far brighter one than any in this poor world below!”
    —Victoria (1819–1901)

    “The great city is that which has the greatest man or woman:
    If it be a few ragged huts, it is still the greatest city in the whole
    world.”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
