Outer City

Famous quotes containing the words outer and/or city:

    The outer world, from which we cower into our houses, seemed after all a gentle habitable place; and night after night a man’s bed, it seemed, was laid and waiting for him in the fields, where God keeps an open house.
    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)

    A million people—manners free and superb—open
    voices—hospitality—the most courageous and friendly young men,
    City of hurried and sparkling waters! city of spires and masts!
    City nested in bays! my city!
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
