Famous quotes containing the word suburbs:

    “Prejudices are useless. Call Los Angeles any dirty name you like—Six Suburbs in Search of a City, Paradise with a Lobotomy, anything—but the fact remains that you are already living in it before you get there.”
    —Clive James (b. 1939)

    “Slums may well be breeding-grounds of crime, but middle-class suburbs are incubators of apathy and delirium.”
    —Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)

    “Everywhere—all over Africa and South America ... you see these suburbs springing up. They represent the optimum of what people want. There’s a certain sort of logic leading towards these immaculate suburbs. And they’re terrifying, because they are the death of the soul.... This is the prison this planet is being turned into.”
    —J.G. (James Graham)
