Close Suburbs

Famous quotes containing the words close and/or suburbs:

    In one instance, we understood that a woman was the post- mistress, and they said that she made the best one on the road; but we suspected that the letters must be subjected to a very close scrutiny there.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    With four walk-in closets to walk in,
    Three bushes, two shrubs, and one tree,
    The suburbs are good for the children,
    But no place for grown-ups to be.
    Judith Viorst (b. 1935)
