Famous quotes containing the words columbus, city and/or numbers:
“The American who first discovered Columbus made a bad discovery.”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
“The city sleeps and the country sleeps,
The living sleep for their time, the dead sleep for their time,
The old husband sleeps by his wife and the young husband sleeps by his wife;
And these tend inward to me, and I tend outward to them,
And such as it is to be of these more or less I am,
And of these one and all I weave the song of myself.”
—Walt Whitman (18191892)
“I had a feeling that out there, there were very poor people who didnt have enough to eat. But they wore wonderfully colored rags and did musical numbers up and down the streets together.”
—Jill Robinson (b. 1936)
