Joined City Country

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

    The only coöperation which is commonly possible is exceedingly partial and superficial; and what little true coöperation there is, is as if it were not, being a harmony inaudible to men. If a man has faith, he will coöperate with equal faith everywhere; if he has not faith, he will continue to live like the rest of the world, whatever company he is joined to.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    This was once
    a city among men, a gathering together of spirit.
    It was measured by the Lord and found wanting.
    Robert Duncan (b. 1919)

    The world, as a rule, does not live on beaches and in country clubs.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
