There is no water and still less soap. We have no city, but lots of hope Picture Quote #1

The historian should be fearless and incorruptible; a man of independence, loving frankness and truth; one who, as the poets says, calls a fig a fig and a spade a spade. He should yield to neither hatred nor affection, not should be unsparing and unpitying. He should be neither shy nor deprecating, but an impartial judge, giving each side all it deserves but no more. He should know in his writing no country and no city; he should bow to no authority and acknowledge no king. He should never consider what this or that man will think, but should state the facts as they really occurred Picture Quote #1

If I were really really ridiculously wealthy, I wouldn’t buy a mansion, just tiny apartments in every city I love Picture Quote #1

I laugh when I hear that the fish in the water is thirsty. You don’t grasp the fact that what is most alive of all is inside your own house; and so you walk from one holy city to the next with a confused look! Picture Quote #1

I like a walking culture; I need to be in a city where you can walk everywhere Picture Quote #1

I’m fed up with democracy. In a democracy, people vote for the mayors. I wanted to build a city where I will choose the citizens Picture Quote #1
