Famous quotes containing the words main and/or towns:

    “What is done for science must also be done for art: accepting undesirable side effects for the sake of the main goal, and moreover diminishing their importance by making this main goal more magnificent. For one should reform forward, not backward: social illnesses, revolutions, are evolutions inhibited by a conserving stupidity.”
    —Robert Musil (1880–1942)

    “With a laugh,
    An oath of towns that set the wild at naught,
    They bring the telephone and telegraph.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
