Famous quotes containing the words city, news and/or country:
“The City is of Night; perchance of Death,
But certainly of Night; for never there
Can come the lucid morning’s fragrant breath
After the dewy dawning’s cold grey air;”
—James Thomson (1834–1882)
“When the newspapers have got nothing else to talk about, they cut loose on the young. The young are always news. If they are up to something, that’s news. If they aren’t, that’s news too.”

“That is no country for old men. The young
In one another’s arms, birds in the trees
MThose dying generations—at their song,”
