The Citadel of Tus (or Arg-e Tus) is a citadel from the Sassanid era, located in Tus, in Razavi Khorasan province of Iran. Not much remains of the structure, however its size is comparable to other large citadels of the Sassanid era of Iran.
Famous quotes containing the word citadel:
“The self ... might be regarded as a sort of citadel of the mind, fortified without and containing selected treasures within, while love is an undivided share in the rest of the universe. In a healthy mind each contributes to the growth of the other: what we love intensely or for a long time we are likely to bring within the citadel, and to assert as part of ourself. On the other hand, it is only on the basis of a substantial self that a person is capable of progressive sympathy or love.”
—Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
