Text Quotes
When you know that language, it’s easy to believe that someone in the world awaits you, whether it’s in the middle of the desert or in some great city... without such love, one’s dreams would have no meaning  (City Quotes) Rugby is a good occasion for keeping thirty bullies far from the center of the city  (City Quotes) If I had a gun, I’d shoot a hole into the sun and love would burn this city down for you  (City Quotes) Prayer cannot bring water to parched fields, or mend a broken bridge, or rebuild a ruined city; but prayer can water an arid soul, mend a broken heart, and rebuild a weakened will  (City Quotes) How do you expect to arrive at the end of your own journey if you take the road to another man’s city?  (City Quotes) It’s hard as hell to hold on to your dignity when the risen sun is too bright in your losing eyes, and that’s what I was thinking about as we hunted for bad guys through the ruins of a city that didn’t exist  (City Quotes) This profusion of eccentricities, this dream in masonry and living rock is not a drop scene in a theatre, but a city in the world of reality  (City Quotes) Only in silence I find myself. Life in the city is so hectic that you lose the right perspective. It’s important to know that our biggest resources are in our heart  (City Quotes) Give me some mud off a city crossing, some ochre out of a gravel pit and a little whitening and some coal dust and I will paint you a luminous picture if you give me time to gradate my mud and subdue my dust  (City Quotes) If obedience is not rendered in the homes, we shall never have a whole city, country, principality, or kingdom well governed. For this order in the homes is the first rule; it is the source of all other rule and government  (City Quotes) When a city is inundated with water, the water will move in all of the streets. Every pathway that has been made will be used. It doesn’t matter the reason of its making  (City Quotes) I wonder that no criminal has ever pleaded the ugliness of your city as an excuse for his crimes  (City Quotes) The single most important thing a city can do is provide a community where interesting, smart people want to live with their families  (City Quotes) It takes more than a great church to reach a city, it takes a great movement of churches  (City Quotes) In any city with lots of skyscrapers, lots of skyline, the moon seems bigger than it is. It’s called the moon illusion  (City Quotes) It is an inconvenience, being located in a city where taxes are ludicrously high, where you pay twice your annual income to rent an apartment that could easily be carried on a commercial airline flight  (City Quotes) When you get down to the nitty gritty, isn’t it a pity that in this big city not one little bitty man will admit that he could have been a little wrong  (City Quotes) It doesn’t matter who you are, there are stars in every city, in every house, and on every street  (City Quotes) It doesn’t matter if you come from the inner city. People who fail in life are people who find lots of excuses. It’s never too late for a person to recognize that they have potential in themselves  (City Quotes) A wonderful fact to reflect upon, that every human creature is constituted to be that profound secret and mystery to every other. A solemn consideration, when I enter a great city by night, that every one of those darkly clustered houses encloses its own secret; that every room in every one of them encloses its own secret; that every beating heart in the hundreds of thousands of breasts there, is, in some of its imaginings, a secret to the heart nearest it!  (City Quotes) People tell me that the countryside must always be stupid and backward, and I get angry, as if it were said that only townspeople had immortal souls, and that it was only in the city that the flame of divinity breathed into the first men had an unobscured glow  (City Quotes) Crime seems to change character when it crosses a bridge or a tunnel. In the city, crime is taken as emblematic of class and race. In the suburbs though, it’s intimate and psychological, a mystery resist to generalization, a mystery of the individual soul  (City Quotes) The city sleeps and the country sleeps, the living sleep for their time, the dead sleep for their time, the old husband sleeps by his wife and the young husband sleeps by his wife; and these tend inward to me, and I tend outward to them, and such as it is to be of these more or less I am, and of these one and all I weave the song of myself  (City Quotes) Walking down the street in any town or city in the world and having people look at you and start talking to you, convinced that they know you as well or better than they do members of their own family, that’s just an odd phenomenon. But I mean, I wouldn’t say it was a bad thing. It’s an interesting thing  (City Quotes) Disasters redistribute money from taxpayers to construction workers, from insurance companies to homeowners, and even from those who once lived in the destroyed city to those who replace them. It’s remarkable that this redistribution can happen so smoothly and quickly, with devastated regions reinventing themselves in a matter of months  (City Quotes) And I ran after that voice through the streets so as not to lose sight of the splendid wreath of bodies gliding over the city, and I realized with anguish in my heart that they were flying like birds and I was falling like a stone, that they had wings and I would never have any  (City Quotes) The city grows like a cancer; I must grow like a sun. The city eats deeper and deeper into the red; it is an insatiable white louse which must die eventually of inanition. I am going to starve the white louse which is eating me up. I am going to die as a city in order to become again a man. Therefore I close my ears, my eyes, my mouth  (City Quotes) I see a beautiful city and a brilliant people rising from this abyss, and, in their struggles to be truly free, in their triumphs and defeats, through long years to come, I see the evil of this time and of the previous time of which this is the natural birth, gradually making expiation for itself and wearing out  (City Quotes) You can’t really succeed with a novel anyway; they’re too big. It’s like city planning. You can’t plan a perfect city because there’s too much going on that you can’t take into account. You can, however, write a perfect sentence now and then. I have  (City Quotes) They lived in a great city, a metropolis of many narratives that converged briefly and then separated for ever, discovering their different dooms in that crowd of stories through which all of us, following our own destinies, had to push and shove to find our way through, or out  (City Quotes)
