Famous quotes containing the words city and/or air:
“I dont think there is anything on earth more wonderful than those wistful incomplete friendships one makes now and then in an hours talk. You never see the people again, but the lingering sense of their presence in the world is like the glow of an unseen city at nightmakes you feel the teemingness of it all.”
—John Dos Passos (18961970)
“The air deals blows: surely too hard, too often?
No: it is bent on bringing summer down.
Dead leaves desert in thousands, outwards, upwards,
Numerous as birds; but the birds fly away....”
—Philip Larkin (19221986)
