Famous quotes containing the words city and/or lights:

    When the city gate catches fire, it’s the fish in the moat who suffer.
    Chinese proverb.

    I am haunted by interrupted acts,
    introspective as a leper, enchanted
    by a repulsive clew,
    a gross and fugitive movement of the limbs.
    Is this the love that shook the lights to flame?
    Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)
