Famous quotes containing the word city:
“What it comes down to is this: the grocer, the butcher, the baker, the merchant, the landlord, the druggist, the liquor dealer, the policeman, the doctor, the city father and the politician—these are the people who make money out of prostitution, these are the real reapers of the wages of sin.”
—Polly Adler (1900–1962)
“The great city is that which has the greatest man or woman:
If it be a few ragged huts, it is still the greatest city in the whole
world.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
