Famous quotes containing the words sister and/or cities:

    “One does not arise from such a book as Sister Carrie with a smirk of satisfaction; one leaves it infinitely touched.”
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    “I keep having the same experience and keep resisting it every time. I do not want to believe it although it is palpable: the great majority of people lacks an intellectual conscience. Indeed, it has often seemed to me as if anyone calling for an intellectual conscience were as lonely in the most densely populated cities as if he were in a desert.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
