Joined City Country

Famous quotes containing the words joined, city and/or country:

    You can’t appreciate home till you’ve left it, money till it’s spent, your wife till she’s joined a woman’s club, nor Old Glory till you see it hanging on a broomstick on the shanty of a consul in a foreign town.
    O. Henry [William Sydney Porter] (1862–1910)

    Union of the weakest develops strength
    Not wisdom. Can all men, together, avenge
    One of the leaves that have fallen in autumn?
    But the wise man avenges by building his city in snow.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    There are whole precincts of voters in this country whose united intelligence does not equal that of one representative American woman.
    Carrie Chapman Catt (1859–1947)
