A city whose living ordspråk

A city whose living immediacy is so urgent that when I am in it I lose all sense of the past

Early on we were urgent, but not urgent enough and our hearts were only kind of in it. We just thought, 'They [Lady Raccoons] lost before and they're going to lose again.' But then we realized we had to pick it up and we all got into it and it was amazing.

Ashley Hornisher

It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.

There is a sense of urgency with me, with our staff and our team. I can't say it any more clear than that -- urgent as in now. Let's do it now. Urgent is not panic. I don't think we played in a state of panic. But we did play with some urgency.

The city's really changed and they don't get that. They're living in the past and they're trying to drag us back with them. Voters said that already. They'll say that again this fall.

This is the city of Jane Addams, of reformers and activists, and it has a rich immigrant history. The city's foundation is an immigrant city, and that sense of community rubs off on everybody. We still have that sense of organization.

Living in cities is an art, and we need the vocabulary of art, of style, to describe the peculiar relationship between man and material that exists in the continual creative play of urban living. The city as we imagine it, then, soft city of illusion, myth, aspiration, and nightmare, is as real, maybe more real, than the hard city one can locate on maps in statistics, in monographs on urban sociology and demography and architecture.

We were very anxious. We think it would be very foolish for the city to become involved with a team. It's a lose-lose proposition for the city.

We thought it makes sense to honor Houston's past and to highlight the entrepreneurial spirit the city has had since 1836.

Italy is still very much the same place it was 2,000 years ago. Italians are still the same ... there's a sense of beauty and a sense of dignity and a sense of living life to the full that infects everyone.

I think we're all, the parents. are naive because we're kind of living in the past and as Boise grows and more people come into our city we need to be a lot more on top of it than the parents are now.

Stephanie Miller

is disappointed by the response, given the immediacy of the need. We're both disappointed. But you know, that's the past, and we have to move into the future.

Kathleen Blanco

In a sense, there were these very bright women who were living these traditional housewife lives, who were kind of, in effect, in collusion with Madison Avenue, ... You sort of feel like Evelyn, in another life, could have been the person in New York City writing these ads.

Julianne Moore (1960-)

She wrote in wonderful longhand. We helped shape it a little. She had a natural gift, a sense of recall and immediacy when she wrote about the pleasures of cooking and hunting for wild things.

White Rock Lake is a refuge from city life. If we lose that, we lose our natural beauty ... and I don't want to lose that.
