Upper Arlington Historic

Famous quotes containing the words upper, arlington and/or historic:

    The stately Homes of England,
    How beautiful they stand,
    To prove the upper classes
    Have still the upper hand.
    Noël Coward (1899–1973)

    “Because a few complacent years
    Have made your peril of your pride,
    Think you that you are to go on
    Forever pampered and untired?
    —Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    We are becoming like cats, slyly parasitic, enjoying an indifferent domesticity. Nice and snug in “the social” our historic passions have withdrawn into the glow of an artificial cosiness, and our half-closed eyes now seek little other than the peaceful parade of television pictures.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
