Famous quotes containing the words sister and/or cities:

    Surely a gentle sister is the second best gift to a man; and it is first in point of occurrence; for the wife comes after.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    No doubt I shall go on writing, stumbling across tundras of unmeaning, planting words like bloody flags in my wake. Loose ends, things unrelated, shifts, nightmare journeys, cities arrived at and left, meetings, desertions, betrayals, all manner of unions, adulteries, triumphs, defeats ... these are the facts.
    Alexander Trocchi (1925–1983)
