Famous quotes containing the words cities and/or population:
“What care though rival cities soar
Along the stormy coast,
Penns town, New York, Baltimore,
If Boston knew the most!”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“In our large cities, the population is godless, materialized,no bond, no fellow-feeling, no enthusiasm. These are not men, but hungers, thirsts, fevers, and appetites walking. How is it people manage to live on,so aimless as they are? After their peppercorn aims are gained, it seems as if the lime in their bones alone held them together, and not any worthy purpose.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
