Washington is a city of Southern efficiency and Northern charm.
John F. Kennedy
A great city is not to be confounded with a populous one.
Aristotle
This City is what it is because our citizens are what they are.
Plato
So while an incredible amount of progress has been made, on this fifth anniversary, I wanted to come here and tell the people of this city directly: My administration is going to stand with you - and fight alongside you - until the job is done. Until New Orleans is all the way back, all the way.
Barack Obama
Every city in the world always has a gang, a street gang, or the so-called outcasts.

Henry Miller

Rome - the city of visible history, where the past of a whole hemisphere seems moving in funeral procession with strange ancestral images and trophies gathered from afar.
George Eliot
A great city is that which has the greatest men and women.
Walt Whitman
The great city is that which has the greatest man or woman: if it be a few ragged huts, it is still the greatest city in the whole world.
Walt Whitman
It is true that the king has made a truce with the duke of Burgundy for fifteen days and that the duke is to turn over the city of Paris at the end of fifteen days. Yet you should not marvel if I do not enter that city so quickly.
Joan of Arc
My dad was the town drunk. Most of the time that's not so bad; but New York City?
Henny Youngman
The truth is that Oxford is simply a very beautiful city in which it is convenient to segregate a certain number of the young of the nation while they are growing up.
Evelyn Waugh
The chief function of the city is to convert power into form, energy into culture, dead matter into the living symbols of art, biological reproduction into social creativity.
Lewis Mumford
New York is the perfect model of a city, not the model of a perfect city.
Lewis Mumford
