Famous quotes containing the words notable, utopian and/or communities:

    In one notable instance, where the United States Army and a hundred years of persuasion failed, a highway has succeeded. The Seminole Indians surrendered to the Tamiami Trail.

    —For the State of Florida, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    M.F.K. Fisher (1908–1992)

All communities have a culture. It is the climate of their civilization.
    Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)
