Cities Service

Famous quotes containing the words cities and/or service:

“Whilst we want cities as the centres where the best things are found, cities degrade us by magnifying trifles.”

“You had to face your ends when young
‘Twas wine or women, or some curse
But never made a poorer song
That you might have a heavier purse,
Nor gave loud service to a cause
That you might have a troop of friends.”
