Famous quotes containing the words largest and/or cities:
“He was the man who of all modern, and perhaps ancient poets, had the largest and most comprehensive soul.... He needed not the spectacles of books to read Nature; he looked inwards, and found her there.”

Along the stormy coast,
Penn’s town, New York, Baltimore,
If Boston knew the most!”
