Famous quotes containing the words garden and/or village:
“we know our end
A packet of worm-seed, a garden of spent tissues.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
“When a village ceases to be a community, it becomes oppressive in its narrow conformity. So one becomes an individual and migrates to the city. There, finding others likeminded, one re- establishes a village community. Nowadays only New Yorkers are yokels.”
—Paul Goodman (1911–1972)
