Famous quotes containing the words hope and/or town:

    I cannot trust myself to put in words what I feel at this time. Every kind thought that is in your minds and every good wish that is in your hearts for me finds its responsive wish and thought in my mind and heart for each of you. I love this city. It has been my own cherished home. Twice before I have left it to discharge public duties and returned to it with gladness, as I hope to do again.
    Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)

    A town debars
    Much notice of what’s going on in stars.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
