Joined City Country

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

    “when such bodies join
    There is no touching here, nor touching there,
    Nor straining joy, but whole is joined to whole;

    Where for its moment both seem lost, consumed.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Paradoxically, the freedom of Paris is associated with a persistent belief that nothing ever changes. Paris, they say, is the city that changes least. After an absence of twenty or thirty years, one still recognizes it.”
    —Marguerite Duras (b. 1914)

    “A steady patriot of the world alone,
    The friend of every country but his own.”
