Town Quotes

Poetry is my cheap means of transportation, by the end of the poem the reader should be in a different place from where he started. I would like him to be slightly disoriented at the end, like I drove him outside of town at night and dropped him off in a cornfield Picture Quote #1

L.A. is not a town that supports a lot of theater. Most of the shows don’t get through a week or two and then, the audience kind of disappears Picture Quote #1

In a deal, you give and take. You compromise. Then you grab the cash and catch the next train out of town Picture Quote #1

The arrival of a good clown exercises a more beneficial influence upon the health of a town than twenty asses laden with drugs Picture Quote #1

If I never went home, what exactly would I be missing? I pictured my cold cavernous house, my friendless town full of bad memories, the utterly unremarkable life that had been mapped out for me. It had never once occurred to me, I realized, to refuse it Picture Quote #1

Those gentlemen, who will be elected senators, will fix themselves in the federal town, and become citizens of that town more than of your state Picture Quote #1

Anybody who doesn’t think that the best hamburger place in teh world is in his home town is a sissy Picture Quote #1

You know the world must be flat, because when people leave town they never come back Picture Quote #1

Troubadours travelled from town to town. They didn’t really sing too good, which is the main reason they kept going Picture Quote #1

A small town is nothing but eyes and gaping maw; it pecks at its own like a flock of vicious birds Picture Quote #1

Plan the town, if you like; but in doing it do not forget that you have got to spread the people. Make wider roads, but do not narrow the tenements behind. Dignify the city by all means, but not at the expense of the health of the home and the family life and the comfort of the average workman and citizen Picture Quote #1

Pittsburgh isn’t fancy, but it is real. It’s a working town and money doesn’t come easy. I feel as much a part of this city as the cobblestone streets and the steel mills, people in this town expect an honest day’s work, and I’ve it to them for a long, long time Picture Quote #1

A man’s interest in a single bluebird is worth more than a complete but dry list of the fauna and flora of a town Picture Quote #1

Names are very important for humans, aren’t they? How do I translate for you the name of this town as it seems to me, the true name that tells of its history and people and lands and weather and... everything? Picture Quote #1

The library is every child’s lighthouse. It is every person’s sanctuary. It is every town and county’s fortress in the face of ignorance, intrusion and bad behavior Picture Quote #1

I’d worked at a small town newspaper, and I was thinking of all the strange stories that I had seen float through the newsroom in my time there that were dismissed as kind of amusing curiosities. Somehow from that I got to this idea of an eccentric alcoholic who built a lighthouse in the woods Picture Quote #1

Sir, you have tasted two whole worms; you have hissed all my mystery lectures and been caught fighting a liar in the quad; you will leave by the next town drain Picture Quote #1

As often as not our whole self... engages itself in the most trivial of things, the shape of a particular hill, a road in the town in which we lived as children, the movement of wind in grass. The things we shall take with us when we die will nearly all be small things Picture Quote #1

I’ve gotten to the point that I don’t even know what tomorrow brings. When I’m teaching, obviously I’m in town for the class every week Picture Quote #1

I was in a town of about 10,000 people, and a shipping container with a rusty microscope was their medical clinic Picture Quote #1

For every perfect little town, there’s something ugly underneath. No dream without the nightmare Picture Quote #1

For you who came so far; for you who held out, wearing a black scarf to signify grief; for you who believe true love can find you amidst this atlas of tears linking one town to its own memory of mortar, when it was still a dream to be built and people moved there, believing, and someone with sky and birds in his heart said this would be a good place for a park Picture Quote #1

In town and in country there must be landscapes where we can walk in safety, pick fruit, cycle, work, sleep, swim, listen to the birds, bask in the sun, run through the trees and laze beside cool waters Picture Quote #1

Ever blow bubbles when you were a kid? Well, he’s back in town and looking for you! Picture Quote #1

It’s as if you kneel to plant the seed of a tree and it grows so fast that it swallows your whole town before you can even rise to your feet Picture Quote #1

People have kind of latched on with my personality and how I play golf and how I carry myself. It seems like every town we go to, I’m experiencing newer things with these types of fans Picture Quote #1

As a child, I remember my dad would sometimes drive me into town with him to play pinball machines together. It’s a bittersweet memory but also a favorite Picture Quote #1

I envision a day when every city and town has front and back yards, community gardens and growing spaces, nurtured into life by neighbors who are no longer strangers, but friends who delight in the edible rewards offered from a garden they discovered together. Imagine small strips of land between apartment buildings that have been turned into vegetable gardens, and urban orchards planted at schools and churches to grow food for our communities. The seeds of the urban farming movement already are growing within our reality Picture Quote #1
