Most people leave Small town to dream of going back there. And others stay to dream of leaving there. Chuck Palahniuk

Hometown is not the one in which you started your life, but the one in which you want to end it.

Soldiers surrender cities, generals take them. Alexander Tvardovsky
My father left me when I was six years old, but I still don't remember him. My father has a habit of starting a new family in a new city every seven years. He obviously thinks that the family is something like a chain of branded restaurants. Chuck Palahniuk
Warm days have returned to the city. They returned with redoubled affection, as unfaithful wives return. All day long frivolous, restless clouds wandered across the sky, and dry, fried autumn leaves densely lay on the ground silently, 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
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 spring would come for him someday.

The city lies in darkness... It's winter again...
Autumn depressingly covers the city with leaves, Corroding paint with a wet mood.
I will go where you are. I don't need anything else. I don't need student council anymore. I don't need good grades anymore. I no longer need smart comrades. I don't want to meet spring in another city. I want to meet her with you. This is enough for me.
If there were no winter If there were no winter In cities and villages, We would never know These merry days. The baby wouldn’t circle Near the snow woman, The ski track wouldn’t wind, If only, if it were, if ...

The city is melting in a flock in the darkness, Autumn, what did I know about you? How many leaves will be torn, Autumn is always right.

Who can say where the city ends and the wilderness begins? Who's to say, does the city grow into it or does it move into the city?
Ray Bradbury
If you fall because of your mother, she will help you to your feet. If you fall in the city, no one will help you up.
They say that in a big city people are more tolerant than in the provinces. No, it's just indifference.
We will be showered with snow flakes New winter in this city. I cover my eyes with my hands. Your eyes with your palms.
She was well versed in old money. A certain halo of holiness hovered over them - probably because people did not part with them for years. And she understood the new money, made by upstarts, who in recent years have been visibly divorced in the city. But in Madame Zarinski's powdered chest was the heart of a real Ankh-Morpork shopkeeper, who knows for sure: the best money is the one that you hold in your hands, and not anyone else. The best money is my money, not yours. In addition, she was distinguished by sufficient snobbery, and therefore she always confused rudeness and good upbringing. Rich people are never crazy (they are eccentric), and just as they are never rude (they are honest and direct). Terry Pratchett "Masquerade"
We justify by necessity everything we do. When we bomb cities it is a strategic necessity, but 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 the right time. The stuffy weeks ended abruptly, as if they had been banished. In the evening it rained, and in the morning the sun was already gloomy. 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, get used to something. Everything is as it is. 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 a person lives and how nature lives - you must 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 - they scoop out water, chip off the rust. Ray Bradbury
Sometimes I feel like we're the worst family in town.
- Maybe we should move to a bigger city?
It got dark, the city lights up the first lights. God! 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 seeing this? Is there really no other Cassandra anywhere, who stands on a hill just like that and sees a city at her feet, swallowed up 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 a miserable, helpless monster. Everything that it consumes must be delivered to it.
I am perhaps more attracted to 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. Ethel Lilian Voynich
This city, which I so rarely return to, again contrived and stuck an awl in my heart - through everything that I managed to come to terms with in life, through a jacket, sweater and chest. Martha Ketro
This music was written as if to help you go forward, stubbornly and almost vengefully climb the mountain. She calls forward, forward, forward, not allowing to stop. And then there is a lull, as in Vienna woods, as if a person suddenly caught in the throat from the sight of the city where he is striving, and then he spreads his arms to the sides and begins to dance in a circle ... This is merciless music. A walking person is not going to stop. Forward, up, further ... Now it does not matter: forests, trees - all this does not matter. Only one thing matters: you continue to walk ... And when a drop of happiness comes again - fragrant, jubilant happiness, caused by the fact that you are walking on a plateau - then this time steps sound in time with it. That's why the journey never ends. Until the music stops playing. Ann Rice
There is nothing better than spending the summer in the woods, giving your head a rest before studying and returning home, to the city, to the noise, cold, dirty air, where there is too much a large number of people is in too limited space. Simon Hawk
Moscow is a city where money can be made out of thin air.
The city removed the winter. The snows were salivating. Spring has come again, stupid and talkative like a cadet.
Not old age is the surest sign of maturity, but the ability not to get confused, waking up on a busy street in the city center in your underwear.
They finished simultaneously, in different parts of the city, each on their own shelf of human high-rise buildings.
You can take cities and win battles, but you can't subdue an entire nation. George Bernard Shaw

I would like to snow in your city, just to be with you... Elchin Safarli
Entire 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, are neither in the village nor in the city.
The rivers have cooled down, and the earth has cooled down, And houses have slightly ruffled. It's warm and damp in the city, It's warm and damp in the city, And outside the city - winter, winter, winter. Leonid Derbenev
A city becomes a world when you love one of those who live in it.
Happiness is to have a big, loving, caring, close-knit family in another city. George Burns

Now the whole world is standing on the edge, looking down at the damn hell. All those liberals, intellectuals, sweet talkers. And for some reason, suddenly no one knows what to say.

It is difficult to say what our cities mean to us, our places where we visit. For some, this is just a set of letters on the map, for others it is something huge, kind and eternal, and for others it is an unimaginable feeling of nostalgia. However, no matter what category of people we belong to, it is difficult to deny the mysterious duality of cities. It is at the same time something personal, private and sacred, but at the same time something public, all-encompassing and vulgar. A selection of statuses about such a simple and complex thing - about cities, about favorite cities, about beautiful cities.
