Text Quotes
The building of friendship, family, community and love is complicated. We are so isolated in this country, no longer supported by tribes and villages  (Villages Quotes) Remote villages and communities have lost their identity, and their peace and charm have been sacrificed to that worst of abominations, the automobile  (Villages Quotes) They more or less came in with cap and knee, met him in boroughs, cities, villages; attended him on bridges, stood on lanes, laid gifts before him, proffer'd him their oaths, gave him their heirs: as pages follow'd him, even at his heels, in golden multitudes  (Villages Quotes) It used to happen in villages and towns in China that they would have - I guess you'd call them beauty contests - where all of the women of a particular village or town would be seated behind these screens or curtains with only their feet showing  (Villages Quotes) Roads stretch far through the landscape, the villages lie in a grey light; trees rustle, leaves are falling, falling  (Villages Quotes) The almighty dollar, that great object of universal devotion throughout our land, seems to have no genuine devotees in these peculiar villages  (Villages Quotes) I want to turn the clock back to when people lived in small villages and took care of each other  (Villages Quotes) The heart of the matter, as I see it, is the stark fact that world poverty is primarily a problem of two million villages, and thus a problem of two thousand million villagers  (Villages Quotes) Men appear to prefer ruining one another’s fortunes, and cutting each other’s throats about a few paltry villages, to extending the grand means of human happiness  (Villages Quotes) We have received credible reports that show a clear and consistent pattern: entire villages are looted, burned down and sometimes bombed. Large numbers of civilians have been killed and scores of women and children have been abducted, raped and tortured  (Villages Quotes) As for now, we must not forget who would have to exchange the land? Those villages which live more than others on irrigation, on orange and fruit plantations, in houses built near water wells and pumping stations, on livestock and property and easy access to markets  (Villages Quotes) Having covered some half a hundred cities, towns, villages, and wide spots in the road during the last tow years, george and I fairly wallowed in the comfort of our own home base  (Villages Quotes) We drove on and on, past little villages and both good things and bad things were happening to the people in those villages too, but I still was nothing but arms and ears and eyes and maybe there’d be either some good luck for me or more death tomorrow  (Villages Quotes) I am the lover of uncontained and immortal beauty. In the wilderness, I find something more dear and connate than in streets or villages. In the tranquil landscape, and especially in the distant line of the horizon, man beholds somewhat as beautiful as his own nature  (Villages Quotes) Miracles happen every day. Not just in remote country villages or at holy sites halfway across the globe, but here, in our own lives  (Villages Quotes) What is it about maps? I could look at them all day, earnestly studying the names of towns and villages I have never heard of and will never visit  (Villages Quotes) The greatest crimes in the world are not committed by people breaking the rules but by people following the rules. It’s people who follow orders that drop bombs and massacre villages  (Villages Quotes) I'm the most recognized and loved man that ever lived cuz there weren't no satellites when Jesus and Moses were around, so people far away in the villages didn't know about them  (Villages Quotes) Not the children of the rich or of the powerful only, but of all alike, boys and girls, both noble and ignoble, rich and poor, in all cities and towns, villages and hamlets, should be sent to school  (Villages Quotes) Abstract words such as glory, honor, courage, or hallow were obscene beside the concrete names of villages, the numbers of roads, the names of rivers, the numbers of regiments and the dates  (Villages Quotes) Vaccination is pretty special because you can do a vaccination campaign anywhere in the world. All you are doing is gathering women from the villages, getting them the vaccines and asking them to go around and find the children  (Villages Quotes) In principle... no government in the world can accept an armed terrorist group, some of them coming from abroad, controlling streets and villages in the name of jihad  (Villages Quotes) It is a city of villages, closely connected, each village dedicated to a different way of life  (Villages Quotes) For all its material advantages, the sedentary life has left us edgy, unfulfilled, even after 400 generations in villages and cities, we haven’t forgotten: The open road still softly calls like a nearly forgotten song of childhood  (Villages Quotes) In the great cities we see so little of the world, we drift into our minority. In the little towns and villages there are no minorities; people are not numerous enough. You must see the world there, perforce. Every man is himself a class  (Villages Quotes) A drone strike is a terror weapon, we don’t talk about it that way. It is; just imagine you are walking down the street and you don’t know whether in 5 minutes there is going to be an explosion across the street from some place up in the sky that you can’t see. Somebody will be killed, and whoever is around will be killed, maybe you’ll be injured if you’re there. That is a terror weapon. It terrorizes villages, regions, huge areas. It’s the most massive terror campaign going on by a long shot  (Villages Quotes) Small groups or communities may be far more oppressive to the individual than larger ones. Men are in many ways freer in large cities than in small villages  (Villages Quotes)
