Suburb Quotations

Each seeking to satisfy private wants. Barbara Jordan I would sum up my fear about the future in one word: boring.

G. Ballard Our children were mostly brought up and educated in the Churchill suburb east of Pittsburgh. Each summer, we took them back to England for an extended period.
