With their location on the outskirts, their gloomy silence, airports are akin, in my opinion, only to the post stations of the stagecoach era.

Make cities so that you can be proud of them, that you can work, think and relax in them, and not get sick with neurasthenia and tram rage.

I will go where you are. I don't need anything else. I don't need the student council anymore. I don't need good grades anymore. I don't need smart comrades anymore. I don't want to meet spring in another city. I want to meet her with you. This is enough for me.

She was well versed in old money. A certain aura of holiness hovered over them - probably because people did not part with them for years. And she was versed in the new money made by upstarts, which in recent years in the city divorced apparently invisibly. But in Madame Zarinski's powdered chest the heart of a real Ankh-Morpork shopkeeper was beating, who knows for sure: the best money is the money that you hold in your hands, and not someone else. The best money is my money, not yours. In addition, she was quite snobbish, and therefore always confused rudeness and good upbringing. Rich people are never crazy (they are eccentric), nor are they rude (they are honest and spontaneous). Terry Pratchett "Masquerade"
We justify everything that we ourselves do by necessity. When we bomb cities it is a strategic necessity, and when our cities are bombed it is a heinous crime. Erich Maria Remarque "A Time to Live and a Time to Die"
Autumn ... She appeared in the city suddenly, although according to the calendar it's time. The sweltering weeks ended abruptly, as if they had been banished. In the evening it started to rain, and in the morning the sun was already dull. During these hot almost three months of summer we have completely lost the habit of contrasts. We forgot that we live in a city-mood. Today outside the window smells of autumn coolness. I love this season. The time when you do not need to prove anything, to get used to something. Everything is as it is. A time of silent reconciliation with different colors of life. Elchin Safarli
Of course, if you want to look at the two most important things - how man lives and how nature lives - you have to come here, to the ravine. After all, the city, in the end, is just a big ship battered by storms, it is full of people, and everyone is busy tirelessly - scooping up water, chipping off rust. Ray Bradbury
Sometimes it seems to me that we are the worst family in town.
- Maybe we should move to a larger city?
It got dark, the city lights the first lights. Lord! How he is overwhelmed by nature, despite all his geometric lines, how the evening presses on him. Hence it is so ... so striking. Am I the only one who sees it? Is there really no other Cassandra, who stands like this on the hill and sees at her feet the city, absorbed by the womb of nature. But what difference does it make to me? What can I tell her? Jean-Paul Sartre
The big city is an unfortunate helpless monster. Everything that it consumes must be delivered to it.

This city, to which I so rarely return, contrived again and stuck an awl in my heart - through everything that I managed to reconcile with in life, through my jacket, sweater and chest. Martha Ketro
This music was written as if to help go forward, stubbornly and almost vindictively climb the mountain. She calls forward, forward and forward, not letting you stop. And then there comes a lull, like in a Vienna woods, as if a person's throat suddenly caught in the throat from the sight of the city where he aspires, and then he throws his arms out to the sides and begins to dance in a circle ... This is merciless music. The walking person is not going to stop. Forward, upward, further ... Now it doesn't matter anymore: forests, trees - none of this matters. Only one thing matters: you continue to walk ... And when a drop of happiness comes again - fragrant, exultant happiness caused by walking along the plateau - then this time steps sound to the beat. That is why the path does not end. Until the music stops playing. Anne Rice

It's hard to say what our cities mean to us, our places we visit. For some it is just a set of letters on a map, for others it is something huge, kind and eternal, and for others it is an unimaginable feeling of nostalgia.

Our city ... From these landscapes my heart shuddered. Like a murky coffee slurry, the familiar gloomy darkness into which city dwellers plunge, as if it were calendar holidays. Endless rows of buildings and dwellings, foggy cloudy sky. Lined up in herds of cars spewing carbon dioxide.

Chuck Palahniuk
I know all of them: they are all scammers, the whole city is like that: a swindler sits on a swindler and drives him to a swindler.
Nikolai Vasilyevich Gogol
... I generally like to leave, because without leaving one city, it is rather difficult to come to another, and I like coming more than anything else.
Warm days have returned to the city. They returned with redoubled affection, as unfaithful wives return. Frivolous, restless clouds wandered across the sky all day, and dry, lean leaves like autumn lay densely on the ground in silence, without a rustle. For several days the city seemed to be in a warm and kind of blissful swoon, it indulged in autumn, this changeable liar, and did not believe, did not want to believe in the imminent onset of cold weather ...
Dina Rubina
In the light of the sun, there is something naively theatrical, captivating and magical in Lisbon. But at night it turns into a vague fairy tale about the city, which with all its terraces and onyi descends to the sea, like a festively dressed woman, bowing to her lover, drowned in the darkness.

Erich Maria Remarque
Why does no one whom I ask about my beloved city name the city in which he was born and lives? “I don’t know, my dear ... Perhaps we were all scattered around the world and mixed in it so that everyone would look for his own place. Heart.
Elchin Safarli
Some tourists think Amsterdam is a city of sin, but in truth, it is a city of freedom. And in freedom, many people find sin.
It is enough to arrive at five in the morning in an unfamiliar city. It's all…
They say people in a big city are more tolerant than in the provinces. No, this is simple indifference.
I looked at the clock - it was five o'clock in the morning, but neither she nor I even felt sleepy, for there was a neurosis in the air of this city, which the locals take for energy.
The brighter the city, the darker its shadow ...
In this city, everyone loves being alone, and even if they don't, they are still alone.
Winter kills life on earth, but spring comes, and all living things will be born again. But it was hard to believe, looking at the ashes of the recently living city, that someday spring would come for it too.
If you are looking for a person in a big city and have no idea where he might be, then instead of rushing around the city in search of him, it is better to sit somewhere in the center and sit there waiting until the one you are you seek, he will not come to you.
You can build your future out of anything. From some crumb or spark. From the desire to move forward, slowly, one step after another. You can build a spacious city on the ruins.
Lauren Oliver
For city life, four inevitable retributions begin to a person. For idleness, a little personal labor - schizophrenia, for excessive comfort, laziness and greedy food - sclerosis, heart attack, for experiencing the period for which a given individual is designed for heredity - cancer, for childbearing anyhow ... - hereditary diseases, cretinism ...
Ivan Efremov
The rivers have cooled down, and the earth has cooled down, And the houses have slightly ruffled. It is warm and damp in the city, It is warm and damp in the city, And outside the city - winter, winter, winter.
There are people in the world whom you just love. Just. Not for something. You feel good at the thought that they exist. They may be very far away, in other cities, even in other countries, but you know that they love you too. Just.
I will drown the whole city in blood, if only you were whole.
Oh, if the Eternal City were not tormented by eternal traffic jams.
A walk in an unfamiliar city, if you haven't erased your feet, do not collapse with fatigue, have at least a little money in your pocket, and have a few days left, is one of the most enjoyable activities in the world.
Sergey Lukyanenko
Still, hometown is a high concentration of impressions. Not something specific, but all at once. Strong, weak, joyful and sad - in such a powerful stream that you just choke.
There was a carousel in my life, there was a room of laughter, and now, finally, I met a person with whom I could stop and not run anywhere else. Don't you want to stay with me?
The city is the teacher of man.
One of the easiest ways to love the city in which you live is from time to time to look at it through the eyes of a stranger (unless, of course, evil fate has thrown you into a very disgusting hole).
While my crazy city swallows funny dreams, And spreads the noisy streets with maple hearts, Lord, I ask you, fasten my soul with all the buttons, So that I do not wither away at all until spring.
Cities are like women, each with its own distinct scent.
George Martin
Here it is, the advantage of tiny towns - without any effort on your part, everyone knows everything about you.
The city lies in darkness ... It's winter again ...
It cannot be that at the thought that you are in Sevastopol, a feeling of some kind of courage, pride does not penetrate into your soul and that the blood does not begin to circulate faster in your veins ...
Lev Nikolaevich Tolstoy
In a big city you can see more, but in a small city you can hear more.
There are a million of these towns in the world. And in everyone it is just as dark, just as lonely, everyone is just as detached from everything, each has its own horrors and secrets.
Autumn depressingly covers the city with leaves, Eating paint with a wet mood.
Brian discovered one of the main truths of small towns: most secrets - in fact, all more or less important secrets - should not be shared with anyone.
Stephen King
I will go where you are. I don't need anything else. I don't need the student council anymore. I don't need good grades anymore. I don't need smart comrades anymore. I don't want to meet spring in another city. I want to meet her with you. This is enough for me.
The largest city, when you settle down in it, shrinks, becomes small for you and provincial.
What a city - not a single unfamiliar face. Even the bandits, and those acquaintances.
When this city falls asleep, I get up.
Any city ceases to be hostile as soon as you eat and drink in it.
They say that the streets and houses keep the memory of the moments of happiness experienced by loving souls. Perhaps this is just a beautiful legend, but this morning I need to believe in it….
If there was no winter If there was no winter In cities and villages, We would never have known These happy days. The little one wouldn’t be circling Near the snow woman, The ski track wouldn’t loop, If only, if only, if only ... If the skiing route wouldn’t snooze, If only, if only ...
The city once again pretends that I am not. But this is ridiculous ...
All my generation is loners, we are deaf to each other, like a bird diving; busy with their own business, we hear nothing around; hiding in quiet marriages, we dream of that one, awarded to a lonely plate and dinner in silence; we saw cities, not people in them.
It is not the privacy of the place that is important, but independence. The poets who lived in the cities were still hermits.
R. Emerson
When the rain falls from top to bottom
When the eyes look upwards
People and cities are becoming cleaner.
If the essence of life is information transmitted by genes, then society and culture are nothing more than an additional giant system for the accumulation and storage of information. That is, the city is a giant external storage device.
Tired of reading "Oblomov"
And wait for good weather from women,
Tired of being soft, gentle, unnecessary
Tired of living in the city
Where the authorities are afraid of the snow
And the traffic cops say hello
With expensive cars.
Tired of being an adult
Who knows everything
But nothing can.
Happiness is when you have a large, friendly, caring, loving family in another city.
George Burns
The city is good only because it gave you.
Robert Musil
Music played among the cold rocks
And the city was asleep.
Where did she call? Who was she looking for?
Nobody knew.
The worst city in the world, Moscow, rushes past the window.
There is a city in the world without which the world will be better ...
“Cities are like clocks,” thought T., “only they don't measure time, they work it out. And each big city produces its own special time, which is known only to those who live in it. In the morning, people, like gears, come into engagement and drag each other out of their holes, and each gear turns in its place until it is completely worn out, piously believing that it moves in this way towards happiness. Nobody knows who winds the spring. But when it breaks down, the city immediately turns into ruins, and people who live by completely different hours come to gaze at them. The time of Athens, the time of Rome - where is it? And Petersburg is still ticking - six in the morning. As young people write - "well, it's time to get down to business, for your old business ..."
Victor Pelevin
You can take cities and win battles, but you cannot conquer an entire nation.
Lights of the city at night, it is as if someone launched hundreds of fireworks at the same time.
This city is too crowded for the two of us. Let's find a bigger city?
I looked at my watch - it was five o'clock in the morning, but neither she nor I even felt asleep, for there was a neurosis in the air of this city, which the local residents take for energy.
It is one thing to fly a B-29 flying to Hiroshima, and quite another to look at it from the central square of the city.
Victor Pelevin
Okay, I understand, every city needs its own idiot ...
It's always like this in small towns - no one wants to spend money on such nonsense as lighting.
I am, perhaps, more attracted by the complete freedom of life in a wild country than the beauty of nature. There, a person can really preserve his human dignity, not like in our cities.
Alexander Chakovsky
Solitude must be sought in big cities.
Rene Descartes
After the break, certain streets, places, even times become prohibited! The city turns into a desolate battlefield filled with mines of memories. You need to carefully look where you step, otherwise you will be torn to pieces ....
Who can tell where the city ends and the wilderness begins? Who can say whether the city is growing into it or it is moving into the city?
Cities that betrayed their children don't live long.
- Even if one?
- Even if only one, - the Passenger said quietly but firmly.
Moscow is a city where money can be made out of thin air.
The one who decided to conquer the capital must be stronger than her. This city does not forgive weakness and does not believe in tears ...
Old age is not the surest sign of maturity, but the ability not to get lost, waking up on a busy street in the city center in underwear.
If you fall because of your mother, she will help you to get to your feet. If you fall in the city, no one will help you up.
Wherever you go alone, you will be alone everywhere. Loneliness is a faithful and obsessive companion, it does not need visas and air tickets, it is not demanding on food and place of residence. Sometimes loneliness can be several hours behind, and then, finding yourself in a new place, you think that you have got rid of it. But it will still catch up. And sometimes it gets ahead of you - and then, having barely arrived in an unfamiliar city, you want to quickly escape somewhere else, to a place where loneliness has no chance.
Olga Lucas
They ended up synchronously, in different parts of the city, each on its own shelf of a rack of human high-rise buildings.
I'm not sure I really exist. I'm all the writers I've read, all the people I've met, all the women I've loved and all the cities I've been to.
The Germans can destroy the city, destroy its treasures, leave us without heat and light, but they cannot destroy the faith in the souls of people!
We will be showered with snowflakes New winter in this city. I cover my eyes with my palms. Your eyes with your palms.
In large cities, people resemble stones poured into a bag: their sharp edges gradually wear off, and they become smooth as pebbles.
There is nothing better than spending the summer in the forest, giving your head a rest before studying and returning home to the city, to the noise, cold, dirty air, where too many people are in too limited space.
Every city has its own smell. And the smell of each thing betrays its provincial homeland.
She was well versed in old money. A certain aura of holiness hovered over them - probably because people had not parted with them for years. And she was versed in the new money made by upstarts, which in recent years in the city divorced apparently invisibly. But in Madame Zarinski's powdered chest the heart of a real Ankh-Morpork shopkeeper was beating, who knows for sure: the best money is the money that you hold in your hands, and not someone else. The best money is my money, not yours. In addition, she was quite snobbish, and therefore always confused rudeness and good upbringing. Rich people are never crazy (they are eccentric), nor are they rude (they are honest and spontaneous).
Terry Pratchett
Surviving, winning in a big city, she becomes infected with the virus of indifference, without noticing it herself. It's hard to keep warm where it's easier to be cold ... and more comfortable.
Getting smashed from fate,
Here I am not myself on my own.
I'm looking for a woman in this city
That, the only one.
The city melts in a flock in the darkness, Autumn, what did I know about you? How much foliage will tear, Autumn is always right.
We justify everything that we ourselves do by necessity. When we bomb cities it is a strategic necessity, and when our cities are bombed it is a heinous crime.
Autumn ... She appeared in the city suddenly, although according to the calendar it's time. The sweltering weeks ended abruptly, as if they had been banished. In the evening it started to rain, and in the morning the sun was already dull. During these hot almost three months of summer we have completely lost the habit of contrasts. We forgot that we live in a city-mood. Today the window smells of autumn coolness. I love this season. The time when you do not need to prove anything, to get used to something. Everything is as it is. A time of silent reconciliation with different colors of life.
Elchin Safarli
Zero degrees in a metropolis is too little to freeze and too much to thaw.
The sun was shining and people were moving vigorously. It was an asphalt spring, it was one of those seasonless spring autumn days that cities conjure.
The pursuit of history is always present in Barcelona. For me, cities are organisms, living beings. For me Madrid is a man and Barcelona is a woman. And this is a very smug woman.
Of course, if you want to look at the two most important things - how a person lives and how nature lives - you have to come here, to the ravine. After all, the city, in the end, is just a big ship battered by storms, it is full of people, and everyone is busy tirelessly - scooping up water, chipping off rust.
Ray Bradbury
Like a child's drawing on the pavement
My whole life is on the city map.
Remember what is dear to me
The city will help me to remember everything.
We breathe freely among the fences
And it might be
We paint pictures creating waste
And it could be.
We love, we give birth in dust up to our throats,
And it could be.
We are the children of the big city
He is dear to us, we will live with him.
Baku is a cat city. I hardly saw dogs there, but cats were everywhere. This is also a true sign of the female essence.
Well, where, where, in Leningrad! - In which Leningrad? There is no such city for a long time already! - There is no city, but the 3rd street of Builders remained ...
The big city is an unfortunate helpless monster. Everything that it consumes must be delivered to it.
Sometimes it seems to me that we are the worst family in town.
- Maybe we should move to a larger city?
It got dark, the city lights the first lights. Lord! How he is overwhelmed by nature, despite all his geometric lines, how the evening presses on him. Hence it is so ... so striking. Am I the only one who sees it? Is there really no other Cassandra, who stands like this on the hill and sees at her feet the city, absorbed by the womb of nature. But what difference does it make to me? What can I tell her?
Jean-Paul Sartre
Asterisk, give me a million, eh? I'll leave, I promise. Necessarily, I give a grudge. I can’t be here anymore, I’m tired, I’m not strong. This city will strangle me. Strangle to death, bitch like that! Just give me a million, okay? And I immediately. Right the next day. Or the same evening. I'll just buy a suit and go to the bathhouse ...
Sergey Minaev
We were the first generation to not hesitate to discuss orgasms from the age of fourteen and masturbate without pangs of conscience. Moscow is not a city for virgins. The city of endless merging of bodies, destinies, souls. Hot, scorching, spraying water in hundreds of streams along rivers, taps and glasses. The city is a fairy tale. Because he is full of unrealizable desires.
This music was written as if to help go forward, stubbornly and almost vindictively climb the mountain. She calls forward, forward and forward, not letting you stop. And then there comes a lull, as in a Vienna woods, as if a person's throat suddenly caught in his throat from the sight of the city he is striving for, and then he throws his arms out to the sides and starts dancing in a circle ... This is merciless music. The walking person is not going to stop. Forward, upward, further ... Now it doesn't matter anymore: forests, trees - all this does not matter. Only one thing matters: you keep walking ... And when a drop of happiness comes again - fragrant, exultant happiness caused by walking on the plateau - then this time steps sound to the beat. That is why the path does not end. Until the music stops playing.
Nightlife Moscow is like a prostitute - she sells herself, and it sells profitably and not cheaply ...
No matter how alien the city is, you can always look up and see the usual picture.
Whole cities can be built on naked love. The easiest way to find her is to leave the house and go nowhere.
Country mansions of the rich, as a rule, neither to the countryside nor to the city.
Why doesn't anyone I ask about their favorite city name the city in which they were born and live?
“I don’t know, my dear ... Perhaps we were all scattered around the world and mixed in it so that everyone would look for their own place. Heart.
