Famous quotes containing the words broadway, gambling and/or resort:
“The name of the town isn’t important. It’s the one that’s just twenty-eight minutes from the big city. Twenty-three if you catch the morning express.

Those horrible little chain stores that breed like rabbits.”

—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
