City Internment Camp

Famous quotes containing the words city and/or camp:

    “Union of the weakest develops strength
    Not wisdom. Can all men, together, avenge
    One of the leaves that have fallen in autumn?
    But the wise man avenges by building his city in snow.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “There was a deserted log camp here, apparently used the previous winter, with its “hovel” or barn for cattle.... It was a simple and strong fort erected against the cold, and suggested what valiant trencher work had been done there.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
