“This City is what it is because our citizens are what they are.” — Plato

“Sometimes the streets are so quiet that you don’t want to move and break that silence; and you stand in a corner and listen to the silence in admiration!” — Mehmet Murat ildan

“No matter how good a story is, if you’re at a newsstand and you see a lot of comic books, you don’t know how good the story is unless you read it. But you can spot the artwork instantly, and you know whether you like the artwork, whether it grabs you or not.” — Stan Lee

“Booksellers are the most valuable destination for the lonely, given the numbers of books written because authors couldn’t find anyone to talk to.” — Alain de Botton

“Everyone is aware that tremendous numbers of people concentrate in city downtowns and that, if they did not, there would be no downtown to amount to anything–certainly not one with much downtown diversity.” — Jane Jacobs

“Today, humans in cities will see a hundred beings in just minutes, naming them strangers, a dehumanizing designation.” — Aspen Matis

“There’s something about arriving in new cities, wandering empty streets with no destination. I will never lose the love for the arriving, but I’m born to leave.” — Charlotte Eriksson

“Why do people resist [engines, bridges, and cities] so? They are symbols and products of the imagination, which is the force that ensures justice and historical momentum in an imperfect world, because without imagination we would not have the wherewithal to challenge certainty, and we could never rise above ourselves.” — Mark Helprin

“To find extraordinary things, go to the ordinary streets!” — Mehmet Murat ildan

“A city isn’t so unlike a person. They both have the marks to show they have many stories to tell. They see many faces. They tear things down and make new again.” — Rasmenia Massoud
