Called City

Famous quotes containing the words called and/or city:

    There was a young lady called Maud,
    A sort of society fraud.
    In the parlor, ‘tis told,
    She was distant and cold,
    But on the verandah, my Gawd!

    Traveling, you realize that differences are lost: each city takes to resembling all cities, places exchange their form, order, distances, a shapeless dust cloud invades the continents.
    Italo Calvino (1923–1985)
