King City Maple

Famous quotes containing the words king, city and/or maple:

    The universe has no prince or king that it [Rome] would consider equal to its humblest citizen.
    Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)

    Not to find one’s way in a city may well be uninteresting and banal. It requires ignorance—nothing more. But to lose oneself in a city—as one loses oneself in a forest—that calls for a quite different schooling. Then, signboard and street names, passers-by, roofs, kiosks, or bars must speak to the wanderer like a cracking twig under his feet in the forest.
    Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)

    Her teacher’s certainty it must be Mabel
    Made Maple first take notice of her name.
    She asked her father and he told her, “Maple
    Maple is right.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
