Famous quotes containing the words natural and/or parks:

    Is it reasonable that even the arts should take advantage of and profit by our natural stupidity and feebleness of mind?
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    Towns are full of people, houses full of tenants, hotels full of guests, trains full of travelers, cafés full of customers, parks full of promenaders, consulting-rooms of famous doctors full of patients, theatres full of spectators, and beaches full of bathers. What previously was, in general, no problem, now begins to be an everyday one, namely, to find room.
    José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)
