Stirling Bridge

Famous quotes containing the words stirling and/or bridge:

    “Oh, if thy pride did not our joys control,
    What world of loving wonders shouldst thou see!
    For if I saw thee once transformed in me,
    Then in thy bosom I would pour my soul;”
    —William Alexander, Earl O Stirling (1580?–1640)

    “Crime seems to change character when it crosses a bridge or a tunnel. In the city, crime is taken as emblematic of class and race. In the suburbs, though, it’s intimate and psychological—resistant to generalization, a mystery of the individual soul.”
    —Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
