Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or wanderer:
“They have slapped into the American mind more human misinformation in one evening than the Dark Ages could muster in a decade.”
—Ben Hecht (1893–1964)
“Not to find one’s way in a city may well be uninteresting and banal. It requires ignorance—nothing more. But to lose oneself in a city—as one loses oneself in a forest—that calls for a quite different schooling. Then, signboard and street names, passers-by, roofs, kiosks, or bars must speak to the wanderer like a cracking twig under his feet in the forest.”
—Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)
