Mifflin Street Block

Famous quotes containing the words street and/or block:

    “I mount the steps and ring the bell, turning
    Wearily, as one would turn to nod good-bye to Rochefoucauld,
    If the street were time and he at the end of the street,
    And I say, “Cousin Harriet, here is the Boston Evening Transcript.””
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “No contact with savage Indian tribes has ever daunted me more than the morning I spent with an old lady swathed in woolies who compared herself to a rotten herring encased in a block of ice.”
    —Claude Lévi-Strauss (b. 1908)
