City Quotes (page 10)

One voice can change a room, and if one voice can change a room, then it can change a city, and if it can change a city, it can change a state, and if it change a state, it can change a nation, and if it can change a nation, it can change the world. Your voice can change the world. Barack Obama
Jim Morrison quote: "Are you a lucky little lady in the City of Light? Or just..."
Are you a lucky little lady in the City of Light? Or just another lost angel... City of Night? Jim Morrison
I had traveled eight thousand miles around the American continent and I was back on Times Square; and right in the middle of a rush hour, too, seeing with my innocent road-eyes the absolute madness and fantastic hoorair of New York with its millions and millions hustling forever for a buck among themselves, the mad dream-grabbing, taking, giving, sighing, dying, just so they could be buried in those awful cemetery cities beyond Long Island City. Jack Kerouac
With heart at rest I climbed the citadel's. Steep height, and saw the city as from a tower, Hospital, brothel, prison, and such hells, Where evil comes up softly like a flower. Thou knowest, O Satan, patron of my pain, Not for vain tears I went up at that hour; But like an old sad faithful lecher, fain. To drink delight of that enormous trull. Whose hellish beauty makes me young again. Whether thou sleep, with heavy vapors full, Sodden with day, or, new appareled, stand. In gold-laced veils... Charles Baudelaire
I've always seen myself as one of those 'show people.' My earliest memories are wanting and needing to entertain people, like a gypsy traveler who goes from place to place, city to city, performing for audiences and reaching people. Brittany Murphy
Lewis Mumford quote: "New York is the perfect model of a city, not the model of a..."
New York is the perfect model of a city, not the model of a perfect city. Lewis Mumford
Christopher Morley quote: "All cities are mad: but the madness is gallant. All cities are..."
All cities are mad: but the madness is gallant. All cities are beautiful: but the beauty is grim. Christopher Morley
America is a nation with no truly national city, no Paris, no Rome, no London, no city which is at once the social center, the political capital, and the financial hub. C. Wright Mills
In the year since we brought things into the open with a clean breath of fresh air at City Hall, we have learned about corrupt spending practices and unethical conflicts of interest that waste your money... and keep Dallas from being the great city of our dreams. Laura Miller
And we did it because it's time for City Hall to stop looking out for City Hall and start looking out for the people like you and me who are footing the bill. Laura Miller
And for the city's birthday, we will host events in every neighborhood of the city, inviting all of our residents to share in the celebration of Boston's great epic - the story of neighbors who support one another where it matters most. Thomas Menino
Out of 30 years of Second City I was probably the third African-American with the main stage cast. I was surprised when I first heard that. I think part of the reason that improvisation has never been popular with African-Americans is that it isn't popular in the inner cities. Tim Meadows
John Guare quote: "However, the moral center of New York City, I believe, is the..."
However, the moral center of New York City, I believe, is the New York City Ballet. John Guare
Bain also asked Kansas City for a $3 million tax break. The Bain executives were taking home $36 million in borrowed funds and were asking Kansas City to forfeit $3 million in public money for police officers, roads and schools? More free stuff! Jennifer Granholm
Well, very long ago, on the spot where the Wild Wood waves now, before ever it had planted itself and grown up to what it now is, there was a city - a city of people, you know. Kenneth Grahame
