Famous quotes containing the words power and/or station:
“It is in this power of saying everything, and yet saying nothing too plainly, that the perfection of art ... consists.”
—John Ruskin (1819–1900)
“How soon country people forget. When they fall in love with a city it is forever, and it is like forever. As though there never was a time when they didn’t love it. The minute they arrive at the train station or get off the ferry and glimpse the wide streets and the wasteful lamps lighting them, they know they are born for it. There, in a city, they are not so much new as themselves: their stronger, riskier selves.”
—Toni Morrison (b. 1931)
