Famous quotes containing the words washington and/or street:

    “Have you ever been in love? A doll in Washington Heights once got a fox fur out of me.”
    —Jay Dratler, U.S. screenwriter, Samuel Hoffenstein (1889–1947)

    “Think of admitting the details of a single case of the criminal court into our thoughts, to stalk profanely through their very sanctum sanctorum for an hour, ay, for many hours! to make a very barroom of the mind’s inmost apartment, as if for so long the dust of the street had occupied us,—the very street itself, with all its travel, its bustle, and filth, had passed through our thoughts’ shrine! Would it not be an intellectual and moral suicide?”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
