Famous quotes containing the words smith and/or nephew:

    Let onion atoms lurk within the bowl,
    And, scarce suspected, animate the whole.
    —Sydney Smith (1771–1845)

    Napoleon wanted to turn Paris into Rome under the Caesars, only with louder music and more marble. And it was done. His architects gave him the Arc de Triomphe and the Madeleine. His nephew Napoleon III wanted to turn Paris into Rome with Versailles piled on top, and it was done. His architects gave him the Paris Opera, an addition to the Louvre, and miles of new boulevards.
    Tom Wolfe (b. 1931)
