Town Halls

Famous quotes containing the words town and/or halls:

    A town is saved, not more by the righteous men in it than by the woods and swamps that surround it.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Saving lives is not a top priority in the halls of power. Being compassionate and concerned about human life can cause a man to lose his job. It can cause a woman not to get the job to begin with.
    Myriam Miedzian, U.S. author. Boys Will Be Boys, ch. 2 (1991)
