Famous quotes containing the words garden and/or cities:

    “There’s always the hyena of morality at the garden gate, and the real wolf at the end of the street.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “... in the cities there are thousands of rolling stones like me. We are all alike; we have no ties, we know nobody, we own nothing. When one of us dies, they scarcely know where to bury him.... We have no house, no place, no people of our own. We live in the streets, in the parks, in the theatres. We sit in restaurants and concert halls and look about at the hundreds of our own kind and shudder.”
    —Willa Cather (1873–1947)
