Famous quotes containing the words cities and/or aspiring:
“Today as in the time of Pliny and Columella, the hyacinth flourishes in Wales, the periwinkle in Illyria, the daisy on the ruins of Numantia; while around them cities have changed their masters and their names, collided and smashed, disappeared into nothingness, their peaceful generations have crossed down the ages as fresh and smiling as on the days of battle.”
—Edgar Quinet (1803–1875)
“Four-room shack aspiring high
With an arm of scrawny mast
For the visions in the sky
That go blindly pouring past.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
