Famous quotes containing the words net and/or slums:
“You have been trapped in the inescapable net of ruin by your own want of sense.”
—Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)
“In frames as large as rooms that face all ways
And block the ends of streets with giant loaves,
Screen graves with custard, cover slums with praise
Of motor-oil and cuts of salmon, shine
Perpetually these sharply-pictured groves
Of how life should be.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
