City Hall

Famous quotes containing the words city and/or hall:

    “I counted two and seventy stenches,
    All well defined and several stinks!
    Ye Nymphs that reign o’er sewers and sinks,
    The river Rhine, it is well known,
    Doth wash your city of Cologne;
    But tell me, Nymphs! what power divine
    Shall henceforth wash the river Rhine?”
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    “Sweet death, small son, our instrument
    Of immortality,
    Your cries and hungers document
    Our bodily decay.”
    —Donald Hall (b. 1928)
