Famous quotes containing the words broad and/or street:

    “Thought is a kind of opium; it can intoxicate us, while still broad awake; it can make transparent the mountains and everything that exists.”
    —Henri-Frédéric Amiel (1821–1881)

    “And men left down their work and came,
    And women with petticoats coloured like flame.
    And little bare feet that were blue with cold,
    Went dancing back to the age of gold,
    And all the world went gay, went gay,
    For half an hour in the street to-day.”
    —“Seumas” “O’Sullivan” (1879–1958)
