Famous quotes containing the words stevens and/or point:
“Cotton Mather died when I was a boy. The books
He read, all day, all night and all the nights,
Had got him nowhere. There was always the doubt,
That made him preach the louder, long for a church
In which his voice would roll its cadences,
After the sermon, to quiet that mouse in the wall.”
—Wallace Stevens (18791955)
“The point of cities is multiplicity of choice.”
—Jane Jacobs (b. 1916)
