Famous quotes containing the words stephens and/or city:
“straightway like a bell
Came low and clear
The slow, sad murmur of the distant seas,”
—James Kenneth Stephens (1882–1950)
“This city is neither a jungle nor the moon.... In long shot: a cosmic smudge, a conglomerate of bleeding energies. Close up, it is a fairly legible printed circuit, a transistorized labyrinth of beastly tracks, a data bank for asthmatic voice-prints.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
