Famous quotes containing the words garden and/or suburb:

    “I confidently predict the collapse of capitalism and the beginning of history. Something will go wrong in the machinery that converts money into money, the banking system will collapse totally, and we will be left having to barter to stay alive. Those who can dig in their garden will have a better chance than the rest. I’ll be all right; I’ve got a few veg.”
    —Margaret Drabble (b. 1939)

    “I had always imagined that Cliché was a suburb of Paris, until I discovered it to be a street in Oxford.”
    —Philip Guedalla (1889–1944)
