Famous quotes containing the words sister and/or cities:
“Sister Bernice: I have looked everywhere. In all of the usual places.
Mother Abbess: Sister Bernice, considering that it’s Maria, I would suggest you look in some place unusual.”
—Ernest Lehman (b. 1920)
“The city is always recruited from the country. The men in cities who are the centres of energy, the driving-wheels of trade, politics or practical arts, and the women of beauty and genius, are the children or grandchildren of farmers, and are spending the energies which their fathers’ hardy, silent life accumulated in frosty furrows in poverty, necessity and darkness.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
