Famous quotes containing the words quiet and/or city:

    Summoning a child’s voice from a webfoot stone,
    Never never oh never to regret the bugle I wore
    On my cleaving arm as I blasted in a wave.
    Now shown and mostly bare I would lie down,
    Lie down, like down and live
    As quiet as a bone.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    I’m darned if I understand you city folks. Always rushing, rushing. Always thinking about the future. No wonder you have stomach trouble.
    James Poe (1921–1980)
