West Raleigh

Famous quotes containing the words west and/or raleigh:

“Sometimes, because of its immediacy, television produces a kind of electronic parable. Berlin, for instance, on the day the Wall was opened. Rostropovich was playing his cello by the Wall that no longer cast a shadow, and a million East Berliners were thronging to the West to shop with an allowance given them by West German banks! At that moment the whole world saw how materialism had lost its awesome historic power and become a shopping list.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)

“There is nothing exempt from the peril of mutation; the earth, heavens, and whole world is thereunto subject.”
—Sir Walter Raleigh (1552–1618)
