Text Quotes
If you shell a military base and happen to kill civilians, you have not committed a war crime; if you deliberately target cities and towns, you have (Cities Quotes)
I prefer the countryside to cities. This is also true of my films: I have made more films in rural societies, and villages, than in towns (Cities Quotes)
Cities are responsible for the vast majority of the creation of the economy. They’re also places into which we pour the vast majority of resources, the vast majority of energy and the places where a huge percentage of the decisions about how systems are built and how products designed, etc., happen (Cities Quotes)
Childhood depression tends to be more common in inner cities, being most frequently related to serious social deprivation, bullying, domestic violence, wartime experience and famine. It is, for example, a serious problem among children who are traumatised refugees (Cities Quotes)
Of course, with agriculture came the first big civilizations, the first cities built of mud and brick, the first empires. And it was the administers of these empires who began hiring people to keep track of the wheat and sheep and wine that was owed and the taxes that was owed on them by making marks; marks on clay in that time (Cities Quotes)
In reference to Persepolis and all palaces, cities and temples of the past: could these wonders have come into being without that suffering? without the overseer’s whip, the slave’s fear, the ruler’s vanity? was not the monumentality of past epochs created by that which is negative and evil in man? (Cities Quotes)
There’s no such thing as civilization. The word just means the art of living in cities (Cities Quotes)
Once you educate the boys, they tend to leave the villages and go search for work in the cities, but the girls stay home, become leaders in the community, and pass on what they’ve learned. If you really want to change a culture, to empower women, improve basic hygiene and health care, and fight high rates of infant mortality, the answer is to educate girls (Cities Quotes)
It seems that most the world is driven by the eye, right? They design cities to look great but they always sound horrible,... They design telephones to look great, but they sound horrible. I think it was about time that the other senses were celebrated (Cities Quotes)
Cities have the capability of providing something for everybody, only because, and only when, they are created by everybody (Cities Quotes)
One day you wake up and realize the world can be conquered... I’m going to put a mask on and scrawl my name across the face of the world, build cities of gold, come back and stomp this place flat, until even the bricks are just dust. So you can just shut up. All of you. I’m going to move the world (Cities Quotes)
In her mind’s eye she saw it, saw it all at last: the rolling armies and the flames of battle; the graves and pits and dying cries of a hundred million souls; the spreading darkness, like a black wing stretching over the earth; the last, bitter hours of cruelty and sorrow, and the terrible, final flights; death’s great dominion over all, and, at the last, empty cities, becalmed by the silence of a hundred years. Already these things were coming to pass (Cities Quotes)
To be engaged in some small way in the revival of one of the great cities of the world is to live a meaningful existence by default (Cities Quotes)
Frost grows on the window glass, forming whorl patterns of lovely translucent geometry. Breathe on the glass, and you give frost more ammunition. Now it can build castles and cities and whole ice continents with your breath’s vapor. In a few blinks you can almost see the winter fairies moving in... But first, you hear the crackle of their wings (Cities Quotes)
L.A. burns, and so many other cities smolder, waiting for the hose that will flood gasoline over the coals, and we listen to politicians who fuel our hate and our narrow views and tell us it’s simply a matter of getting back to basics while they sit in their beachfront properties and listen to the surf so they won’t have to hear the screams of the drowning (Cities Quotes)
It’s no accident that the countries that have enjoyed an economic take off have been those that educated girls and then gave them the autonomy to move to the cities to find work (Cities Quotes)
I want your first trip to be with me. I want to show you cities and landscapes and teach you how to look at things in new ways and how to get along in places you don’t already know inside out. I want to put some life in you (Cities Quotes)
Cities are erected on spiritual columns. Like giant mirrors, they reflect the hearts of their residents. If those hearts darken and lose faith, cities will lose their glamour (Cities Quotes)
I have not been able to find a single useful institution which has not been founded either by an intensely religious man or by the son of a praying father or a praying mother. I have made the statement before the chambers of commerce of all the largest cities of the country and have asked them to bring forward a case that is an exception to this rule. Thus far, I have not heard of a single one (Cities Quotes)
Everyone of a hundred thousand cities around the world had its own special sunset and it was worth going there, just once, if only to see the sun go down (Cities Quotes)
When I see brokenness, poverty and crime in inner cities, I also see the enormous potential and readiness for transformation and rebirth. We are creating an art form that comes from the heart and reflects the pain and sorrow of people’s lives. It also expresses joy, beauty, and love. This process lays the foundation of building a genuine community in which people are reconnected with their families, sustained by meaningful work, nurtured by the care of each other and will together raise and educate their children. Then we witness social change in action (Cities Quotes)
Nothing in this world is more simple and more cheap than making cities that provide better for people (Cities Quotes)
We live in a time of renaissance... cities are coming back to life, after a long neglect (Cities Quotes)
We have to prepare our cities for the increasing scarcity of resources by increasing their density and energy efficiency (Cities Quotes)
Hundreds, thousands, aye, millions of human beings, men, women and children, wander the streets of our cities and the highways of our country, hungry, ragged and cold, vainly seeking in this land of plenty, where physical want should be unknown (Cities Quotes)
Images of people, cities, and landscapes from the air tell a unique story about our personal space and how we relate to one another. I’ve always aimed to address the bigger picture and later trends. In many ways, what a photographer does is give others a chance to step back and look at their world and gain perspective on where we stand, and what that means (Cities Quotes)
Can you think of anything that can get better if we crowd more people into our cities, our towns, into our state our nation or on this earth? (Cities Quotes)
Philosophy should always know that indifference is a militant thing. It batters down the walls of cities and murders the women and children amid the flames and the purloining of altar vessels. When it goes away it leaves smoking ruins, where lie citizens bayonetted through the throat. It is not a children’s pastime like mere highway robbery (Cities Quotes)
I have never got a grip on when the past begins or where it ends, but if cities map the past with statues made from bronze forever frozen in one dignified position, as much as I try to make the past keep still and mind its manners, it moves and murmurs with me through every day (Cities Quotes)
We and you ought not to pull on the ends of a rope which you have tied the knots of war. Because the more the two of us pull, the tighter the knot will be tied. And then it will be necessary to cut that knot, and what that would mean is not for me to explain to you. I have participated in two wars and know that war ends when it has rolled through cities and villages, everywhere sowing death and destruction. For such is the logic of war. If people do not display wisdom, they will clash like blind moles and then mutual annihilation will commence (Cities Quotes)
