Shock City

Famous quotes containing the words shock and/or city:

    Many readers judge of the power of a book by the shock it gives their feelings—as some savage tribes determine the power of muskets by their recoil; that being considered best which fairly prostrates the purchaser.
    Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)

    This was once
    a city among men, a gathering together of spirit.
    It was measured by the Lord and found wanting.
    Robert Duncan (b. 1919)
