Urban Middle

Famous quotes containing the words urban and/or middle:

    The city is a fact in nature, like a cave, a run of mackerel or an ant-heap. But it is also a conscious work of art, and it holds within its communal framework many simpler and more personal forms of art. Mind takes form in the city; and in turn, urban forms condition mind.
    Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)

    Wives are young men’s mistresses, companions for middle age, and old men’s nurses.
    Francis Bacon (1561–1626)
