Famous quotes containing the words twin and/or cities:

    “We live under continual threat of two equally fearful, but seemingly opposed, destinies: unremitting banality and inconceivable terror. It is fantasy, served out in large rations by the popular arts, which allows most people to cope with these twin specters.”
    —Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    “An architect should live as little in cities as a painter. Send him to our hills, and let him study there what nature understands by a buttress, and what by a dome.”
    —John Ruskin (1819–1900)
