The Town

Famous quotes containing the word town:

    “The time you won your town the race
    We chaired you through the market-place;
    Man and boy stood cheering by,
    And home we brought you shoulder-high.”
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)

    “While the town small-talk flows from lip to lip;
    Intrigues half-gathered, conversation-scraps,
    Kitchen-cabals, and nursery-mishaps.”
    —George Crabbe (1754–1832)
