Famous quotes containing the words local and/or streets:
“To see ourselves as others see us can be eye-opening. To see others as sharing a nature with ourselves is the merest decency. But it is from the far more difficult achievement of seeing ourselves amongst others, as a local example of the forms human life has locally taken, a case among cases, a world among worlds, that the largeness of mind, without which objectivity is self- congratulation and tolerance a sham, comes.”
—Clifford Geertz (b. 1926)
“Does it really matter what these affectionate people do—so long as they don’t do it in the streets and frighten the horses!”
—Patrick, Mrs. Campbell (1865–1940)
