The Lost City of Sand

Famous quotes containing the words lost, city and/or sand:

    Patty was a modest maid;
    Patty was of men afraid:
    Patty grew her fears to lose,
    And grew so brave, she lost her nose.
    Horace Walpole (1717–1797)

    Hell is a city much like London—
    A populous and a smoky city;
    There are all sorts of people undone,
    And there is little or no fun done;
    Small justice shown, and still less pity.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    If there was one egg in it there were nine,
    Torpedo-like, with shell of gritty leather,
    All packed in sand to wait the trump together.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
