Famous quotes containing the words pope and/or urban:
“You beat your pate, and fancy wit will come:
Knock as you please, there’s nobody at home.”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
“The city is a fact in nature, like a cave, a run of mackerel or an ant-heap. But it is also a conscious work of art, and it holds within its communal framework many simpler and more personal forms of art. Mind takes form in the city; and in turn, urban forms condition mind.”
—Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)
