“Rome, like Washington, is small enough, quiet enough, for strong personal intimacies; Rome, like Washington, has its democratic court and its entourage of diplomatic circle; Rome, like Washington, gives you plenty of time and plenty of sunlight. In New York we have annihilated both.”
—M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)
“People need to be made more aware of the need to work at learning how to live because life is so quick and sometimes it goes away too quickly.”
—Andy Warhol (1928–1987)
