Famous quotes containing the words garden and/or suburb:
“In a coign of the cliff between lowland and highland,
At the sea-down’s edge between windward and lee,
Walled round with rocks as an inland island,
The ghost of a garden fronts the sea.”
—A.C. (Algernon Charles)
“A suburb is an attempt to get out of reach of the city without having the city be out of reach.”
