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)

    “The cities of the world are concentric, isomorphic, synchronic. Only one exists and you are always in the same one. It’s the effect of their permanent revolution, their intense circulation, their instantaneous magnetism.”
