Famous quotes containing the word maps:
“Living in cities is an art, and we need the vocabulary of art, of style, to describe the peculiar relationship between man and material that exists in the continual creative play of urban living. The city as we imagine it, then, soft city of illusion, myth, aspiration, and nightmare, is as real, maybe more real, than the hard city one can locate on maps in statistics, in monographs on urban sociology and demography and architecture.”
—Jonathan Raban (b. 1942)
“And at least you know
That maps are of time, not place, so far as the army
Happens to be concernedthe reason being,
Is one which need not delay us.”
—Henry Reed (19141986)
