Company Towns

Famous quotes containing the words company and/or towns:

    Attending upon a prince is as dangerous as keeping company with a tiger.
    Chinese proverb.

    Kindness is a virtue neither modern nor urban. One almost unlearns it in a city. Towns have their own beatitude; they are not unfriendly; they offer a vast and solacing anonymity or an equally vast and solacing gregariousness. But one needs a neighbor on whom to practice compassion.
    Phyllis McGinley (1905–1978)
