Town Quotes

It sometimes happens that the town child is more alive to the fresh beauty of the country than a child who is country born Picture Quote #1

It is impossible that a town will not play a part in your life, it does not even make much difference whether you have more good or bad things to say of it, it draws your mind to it, by a mental law of gravitation Picture Quote #1

I guess in all my years, what I heard more than anything else was: a mere town cannot support a discount store for very long Picture Quote #1

In her opinion, the parrots were annoying arrogant. You could buy the most beautiful one in town, she observed, but that won’t make it love you. You could feed it, care for it and exclaim over its loveliness, but there was nothing to guarantee that it would stay home with you. There had to be a lesson in there somewhere Picture Quote #1

Style is when they’re running you out of town and you make it look like you’re leading the parade Picture Quote #1

There is so much pressure to look a certain way in this town. But it’s nice to have a little meat on you, and I hope I inspire women to appreciate their muscular calves Picture Quote #1

As every real estate agent knows, a poor house in good surroundings will sell for a higher price than a better house in poor surroundings, and in a town they confidently ask 25 percent more rent for a flat with a view of a park that for an identical flat with no view Picture Quote #1

A man who has once looked with the archaeological eye will never see quite normally. He will be wounded by what other men call trifles. It is possible to refine the sense of time until an old shoe in the bunch grass or a pile of nineteenth century beer bottles in an abandoned mining town tolls in one’s head like a hall clock Picture Quote #1

Back then every small town had a gym, and if itseated more than 2,000 then we’d be interested in playing in it Picture Quote #1

Man, I did love this game. I’d have played for food money... I used to love traveling on the trains from town to town. The hotels... brass spittoons in the lobbies, brass beds in the rooms. It was the crowd, rising to their feet when the ball was hit deep. Shoot, I’d play for nothing! Picture Quote #1

Add a drop of lavender to milk, leave town with an orange, and pretend you’re laughing at it Picture Quote #1

It’s a sleepy, wonderful, idyllic town but there’s a curse on it from 100 years ago,... The people who died in this kind of boating accident have come back to take their revenge Picture Quote #1

If you are being run out of town, get in front of the crowd and make it look like a parade Picture Quote #1

Flint must be an extremely wealthy town: I see that each of you bought two or three seats Picture Quote #1

I never did like the idea of sitting on newspapers. I did it once, and all the headlines came off on my white pants. On the level! It actually happened. Nobody bought a paper that day. They just followed me around over town and read the news on the seat of my pants Picture Quote #1

That’s how I believed relationships worked: You go into town, pick up the girl you want, then ride off into the mountains and the townsfolk can’t get them back Picture Quote #1

That means I can drive a flock of sheep through the town centre, drink for free in no less than 64 pubs and get a lift home with the police when I become inebriated. What more could you want? Picture Quote #1

A hick town is one where there is no place to go where you shouldn’t go Picture Quote #1

I was raised in a small town. It was so small that our school taught driver’s education and sex education in the same car Picture Quote #1

There are seasons of our lives when nothing seems to be happening, when no smoke betrays a burned town or homestead and few tears are shed for the newly dead. I have learned not to trust those times, because if the world is at peace then it means someone is planning war Picture Quote #1

Rousseau and his disciples were resolved to force men to be free; in most of the world, they triumphed; men are set free from family, church, town, class, guild; yet they wear, instead, the chains of the state, and they expire of ennui or stifling lone lines Picture Quote #1

Only in this town, where we make an industry out of creating euphemisms, can we have enough sugar to sugarcoat this nonsense Picture Quote #1

Around me the moonlight glittered on the pebbles of the llano, and in the night sky a million stars sparkled. Across the river I could see the twinkling lights of the town. In a week I would be returning to school, and as always I would be running up the goat path and crossing the bridge to go to church. Sometime in the future I would have to build my own dream out of those things that were so much a part of my childhood Picture Quote #1

When I die, nieces, I want to be cremated, my ashes taken up in a bush plane and sprinkled onto the people in town below. Let them think my body is snowflakes, sticking in their hair and on their shoulders like dandruff Picture Quote #1

The specific patterns, out of which a building or a town is mademay be alive or dead. To the extent they are alive, they let our innerforces loose, and, set us free; but when they are dead they keepus locked in inner conflict Picture Quote #1
