Homer City

Famous quotes containing the words homer and/or city:

“In Homer and Chaucer there is more of the innocence and serenity of youth than in the more modern and moral poets. The Iliad is not Sabbath but morning reading, and men cling to this old song, because they still have moments of unbaptized and uncommitted life, which give them an appetite for more.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“The city is not a concrete jungle, it is a human zoo.”
—Desmond Morris (b. 1928)
