Sun Cities Solar

Famous quotes containing the words sun, cities and/or solar:

    “From this elevation, just on the skirts of the clouds, we could overlook the country, west and south, for a hundred miles. There it was, the State of Maine, which we had seen on the map, but not much like that,—immeasurable forest for the sun to shine on, the eastern stuff we hear of in Massachusetts. No clearing, no house. It did not look as if a solitary traveler had cut so much as a walking-stick there.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “What care though rival cities soar
    Along the stormy coast,
    Penn’s town, New York, Baltimore,
    If Boston knew the most!”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Lincoln becomes the American solar myth, the chief butt of American credulity and sentimentality.”
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
