Rapid City Rapid

Famous quotes containing the words rapid and/or city:

    It now appears that the negro race is, more than any other, susceptible of rapid civilization. The emancipation is observed, in the islands, to have wrought for the negro a benefit as sudden as when a thermometer is brought out of the shade into the sun. It has given him eyes and ears.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    You are the light of the world. A city built on a hill cannot be hid.
    Bible: New Testament, Matthew 5:14.
