Famous quotes containing the words hastings and/or street:

    “If you can’t get a job as a pianist in a brothel you become a royal reporter.”
    —Max Hastings (b. 1945)

    “If the street life, not the Whitechapel street life, but that of the common but so-called respectable part of town is in any city more gloomy, more ugly, more grimy, more cruel than in London, I certainly don’t care to see it. Sometimes it occurs to one that possibly all the failures of this generation, the world over, have been suddenly swept into London, for the streets are a restless, breathing, malodorous pageant of the seedy of all nations.”
    —Willa Cather (1876–1947)
