Town Walls

Famous quotes containing the words town and/or walls:

    They say this town is full of cozenage:
    As nimble jugglers that deceive the eye,
    Dark-working sorcerers that change the mind,
    Soul-killing witches that deform the body,
    Disguised cheaters, prating mountebanks,
    And many such-like liberties of sin.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The walls that fence our fields, as well as modern Rome, and not less the Parthenon itself, are all built of ruins.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
