Famous quotes containing the words white city, white and/or city:

    ... the great white city of brotherhood, Washington ...
    Christina Stead (1902–1983)

    Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
    Bible: Hebrew Isaiah, 1:18.

    The two elements the traveler first captures in the big city are extrahuman architecture and furious rhythm. Geometry and anguish. At first glance, the rhythm may be confused with gaiety, but when you look more closely at the mechanism of social life and the painful slavery of both men and machines, you see that it is nothing but a kind of typical, empty anguish that makes even crime and gangs forgivable means of escape.
    Federico García Lorca (1898–1936)
