Famous quotes containing the words city and/or centre:

    “The faults of the burglar are the qualities of the financier: the manners and habits of a duke would cost a city clerk his situation.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    “Freedom to think our own thoughts, freedom to utter them, freedom to live out the promptings of our inner life ultimated in this convention, was termed a monstrosity of the 19th century. What was it?—the legitimate out-birth of the eternal law of progress. This reformation underlies every other; it is the only healthful centre around which hope of humanity can revolve.”
    —Harriot K. Hunt (1805–1875)
