For me, New York still ranks as the most beautiful and the most interesting city in the world. It is also the most varied in terms of the things it has to offer. ~ Moby
Cities In The World quotes by Moby
San Francisco is one of my favourite cities in the world ... I would probably rank it at the top or near the top. It's small but photogenic and has layers ... You never have problems finding great angles that people have never done. ~ Ang Lee
Cities In The World quotes by Ang Lee
I love Graham Larkin," she said quietly, her voice full of emotion, and there was a flicker of surprise on his face, and then his expression softened. "You're supposed to shout it," he said, smiling as she tugged on the brim of the cap, forcing him to lower his face, bringing him closer and closer until their lips met. And even though they were in the middle of one of the biggest cities in the world, lost in a sea of concrete and wood and metal, she could almost swear he tasted like the ocean. ~ Jennifer E. Smith
Cities In The World quotes by Jennifer E. Smith
I've been to some of the most amazing cities in the world. ~ Kendall Jenner
Cities In The World quotes by Kendall Jenner
Anywhere in the world you hear a Chicago bluesman play, it's a Chicago sound born and bred. ~ Ralph Metcalfe
Cities In The World quotes by Ralph Metcalfe
In spite of Mr. Poe's fame, the pair made me feel out of sorts, and sad. In one of the busiest cities in the world, they seemed to exist on a bleak island of their own making, their backs turned against the social tide lapping at the battered door. ~ Lynn Cullen
Cities In The World quotes by Lynn Cullen
And go to San Francisco! It's one of the twelve most interesting cities in the world. California has immense contrasts - the utmost wealth and the most hideous squalor. But there's beauty and interest everywhere. ~ Oliver Sacks
Cities In The World quotes by Oliver Sacks
For over 20 years, I have been saying that Chicago is by far one of the greatest food cities in the world. ~ Charlie Trotter
Cities In The World quotes by Charlie Trotter
You can pretend for a long time, but one day it all falls away and you are alone. We are alone in the most beautiful place in the world ... ~ Jean Rhys
Cities In The World quotes by Jean Rhys
Born and raised in Paris, I am deeply attached to my city; we almost have half a century of love story together, where I have been truly completely faithful! The most beautiful city in the world is my city, yeepeeee! ~ Christian Louboutin
Cities In The World quotes by Christian Louboutin
New York is the only city in the world where you can get run down on the sidewalk by a pedestrian. ~ Russell Baker
Cities In The World quotes by Russell Baker
Berlin is one of my favorite cities in the world. I feel like the energy is very youthful. It has such an important history, including its recent history of unification. ~ Mark Zuckerberg
Cities In The World quotes by Mark Zuckerberg
For London, Blampied claimed, was of all cities in the world the most autumnal - its mellow brickwork harmonizing with fallen leaves and October sunsets, just as the etched grays of November composed themselves with the light and shade of Portland stone. There was a charm, a deathless charm, about a city whose inhabitants went about muttering, "The nights are drawing in," as if it were a spell to invoke the vast, sprawling creature-comfort of winter. ~ James Hilton
Cities In The World quotes by James Hilton
The very greatest genius, after all, is not the greatest thing in the world, any more than the greatest city in the world is the country or the sky. It is the concentration of some of its greatest powers, but it is not the greatest diffusion of its might. It is not the habit of its success, the stability of its sereneness. ~ Leigh Hunt
Cities In The World quotes by Leigh Hunt
In the nineteenth century, cholera struck the most modern, prosperous cities in the world, killing rich and poor alike, from Paris and London to New York City and New Orleans. In 1836, it felled King Charles X in Italy; in 1849, President James Polk in New Orleans; in 1893, the composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky in St. Petersburg. ~ Sonia Shah
Cities In The World quotes by Sonia Shah
In the beginning, New York and I had kind of a love-hate relationship. It seemed so abrasive compared to Europe. But the transformation here in recent years is really something. I don't think I would have seen as much change if I'd lived in any other city in the world. ~ Shalom Harlow
Cities In The World quotes by Shalom Harlow
Buenos Aires is easily one of the most stylish cities in the world with its eclectic collection of neighborhoods, each with its own unique charm. ~ Ben Elliot
Cities In The World quotes by Ben Elliot
The cities of the world are concentric, isomorphic, synchronic. Only one exists and you are always in the same one. It's the effect of their permanent revolution, their intense circulation, their instantaneous magnetism. ~ Jean Baudrillard
Cities In The World quotes by Jean Baudrillard
As for New York City, it is a place apart. There is not its match in any other country in the world. ~ Pearl S. Buck
Cities In The World quotes by Pearl S. Buck
There are two kinds of cities in the world: those that reassure their residents that tomorrow and the day after, and the day after that, will be much the same; and those that do the opposite, insidiously reminding their inhabitants of life's uncertainty. Istanbul is of the second kind. There is no room for introspection, no time to wait for the clocks to catch up with the pace of events. Istanbulites dart from one breaking news story to the next, moving fast, consuming faster, until something happens that demands their full attention. ~ Elif Shafak
Cities In The World quotes by Elif Shafak
There are at least 50 cities in the world that would have liked to obtain the Getty Collection. ~ J. Paul Getty
Cities In The World quotes by J. Paul Getty
New York now leads the world's great cities in the number of people around whom you shouldn't make a sudden move. ~ David Letterman
Cities In The World quotes by David Letterman
You know, I run the Vegas Deluxe website and that really is 24 hours a day, seven days a week. And we have more stars going through this city with shows. We have more disc jockeys playing in nightclubs here, we have more parties, more of everything than any other city in the world. So it's non-stop. ~ Robin Leach
Cities In The World quotes by Robin Leach
It's one of the most progressive cities in the world. Shooting is only a sideline. ~ Will Rogers
Cities In The World quotes by Will Rogers
All the experience of the greatest city in the world could not withhold me. ~ Henry Williamson
Cities In The World quotes by Henry Williamson
For me, selfishly, Toronto is my favorite city in the world. It's the greatest city and you have the whole world here. ~ Kristen Hager
Cities In The World quotes by Kristen Hager
Barcelona is one of my favourite cities in the world. The fashion and people are just so effortlessly cool. ~ Leigh Lezark
Cities In The World quotes by Leigh Lezark
The United States is a world unto itself. We have mountains, we have deserts, we have a river that equals the Yangtze River, that equals the Nile. We have the greatest cities in the world - among the greatest cities in the world. ~ Paul Theroux
Cities In The World quotes by Paul Theroux
And New York is the most beautiful city in the world? It is not far from it. No urban night is like the night there ... Squares after squares of flame, set up and cut into the aether. Here is our poetry, for we have pulled down the stars to our will. ~ Ezra Pound
Cities In The World quotes by Ezra Pound
Is Hollywood the cruelest city in the world? Well, it can be. New York can be that, too. You can be a Broadway star here one night, and something happens, and out
nobody knows you on the street. They forget you ever lived. It happens in Hollywood, too. ~ Buster Keaton
Cities In The World quotes by Buster Keaton
Hog butcher for the world, Tool maker, stacker of wheat, Player with railroads and the nation's freight handler; Stormy, husky, brawling, City of big shoulders. ~ Carl Sandburg
Cities In The World quotes by Carl Sandburg
Barcelona is one of the best cities in the world. I love it there. I love Big Sur. It's stunning and you get a therapeutic experience there. The drive up the coast is one of the most beautiful I've ever done. Also, Hong Kong. I could easily live there! ~ Meghan Markle
Cities In The World quotes by Meghan Markle
San Francisco is one of my favorite cities in the world. ~ Rosalynn Carter
Cities In The World quotes by Rosalynn Carter
If one had but a single glance to give the world, one should gaze on Istanbul. ~ Alphonse De Lamartine
Cities In The World quotes by Alphonse De Lamartine
I completely agree. The crazy thing is that the current system only benefits the rich and those in power. We buy into their arguments, even when they contradict our direct experiences. We accept the unacceptable. Take Marduk. We live in one of the richest cities in the world, in a developed country, and yet we have one of the highest levels of inequality and homelessness. How strange that despite our wealth we should be so greedy! ~ Sheila Matharu
Cities In The World quotes by Sheila Matharu
I've reported murders, scandals, marriages, premieres and national political conventions. I've been amused, intrigued, outraged, enthralled and exasperated by Chicago. And I've come to love this American giant, viewing it as the most misunderstood, most underrated city in the world. There is none other quite like my City of Big Shoulders. ~ Irv Kupcinet
Cities In The World quotes by Irv Kupcinet
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
Cities In The World quotes by Walt Whitman
Look, I hate to sound like Pollyanna, but I literally can't wait to get to work in the morning. I've got steady jobs, I've got my health, and I'm here in the greatest city in the world. I'd be a pig not to be grateful. ~ Christopher Meloni
Cities In The World quotes by Christopher Meloni
A city may be dirty on the outside but is clean on the inside. Many cities in the world are clean on the outside but dirty on the inside. ~ Gregory David Roberts
Cities In The World quotes by Gregory David Roberts
Fast food is the one thing everyone can relate to. It's depressing, but also interesting, that people desire to eat the same sandwich in every single city in the world. But the biggest bummer is when you see a Subway in Berlin. Just devastating. ~ Patrick Carney
Cities In The World quotes by Patrick Carney
London is one of the most exciting cities in the world, with a melting pot of cultures and diversity. ~ Orlando Bloom
Cities In The World quotes by Orlando Bloom
Probably in 2035 we will pass that mantle on to China. It will be the biggest economy in the world, and it will go way past us and way past India. Given the growth, the size, the opportunities, I don't think there's any other place in the world that can match it. ~ David Rubenstein
Cities In The World quotes by David Rubenstein
He could remember all about it now; the pitiful figure he must have cut; the absurd way in which he had gone and done the very thing he had so often agreed with himself in thinking would be the most foolish thing in the world; and had met with exactly the consequences which, in these wise moods, he had always foretold were certain to follow, if he ever did make such a fool of himself. ~ Elizabeth Gaskell
Cities In The World quotes by Elizabeth Gaskell
Those are the souls who need compassion most," Mom would say. "The ones broken by the world, angry and afraid of trusting. You must remind them that they are not alone. Nothing can be lost in trying. Remember that always, my darling. ~ Candace Ganger
Cities In The World quotes by Candace Ganger
The world began in ending, and it will end in beginning. ~ Jacqueline Carey
Cities In The World quotes by Jacqueline Carey
Europe is standing on the brink of the greatest tragedy in the history of the human race: a new world war, that may involve the doom of our entire civilisation. ~ Vidkun Quisling
Cities In The World quotes by Vidkun Quisling
This visit is meant to express my closeness to our brothers and sisters who endured the suffering, loss and devastation caused by Typhoon Yolanda. Together with many people throughout the world, I have admired the heroic strength, faith and resilience demonstrated by so many Filipinos in the face of this natural disaster, and so many others. ~ Pope Francis
Cities In The World quotes by Pope Francis
I find acting in contact lenses is bizarre to me, because there's just a giant filter between you and the world. I know it sounds painfully, ridiculously obvious, but it's true. You're just so detached. ~ Matthew Rhys
Cities In The World quotes by Matthew Rhys
The more real I got on 'The Bourne Identity,' the more interesting it got. So 'Fair Game' was the chance to go a few more steps in that direction. In fact, I discovered this whole other world that I had ignored in the 'Bourne' franchise, which is the domestic life of a spy, and how you make the two halves of your life coexist. ~ Doug Liman
Cities In The World quotes by Doug Liman
The cyborg is a creature in a post-gender world; it has no truck with bisexuality, pre-oedipal symbiosis, unalienated labour, or other seductions to organic wholeness through a final appropriation of all the powers of the parts into a higher unity. ~ Donna J. Haraway
Cities In The World quotes by Donna J. Haraway
Yoga's most sublime objective is to awaken an exalted state of spiritual realization; however, the tradition also recognizes that this state does not exist in absolute isolation from the world and worldly matters. ~ Rod Stryker
Cities In The World quotes by Rod Stryker
I support legal immigration. I don't support amnesty because it is not fair to people standing in line at consulates around the world. ~ Heather Wilson
Cities In The World quotes by Heather Wilson
The Nobel prize is unquestionably the most famous prize in the world, and very often, the prize is an object of prestige not only for a person but also for a research center, a country, or for a particular area of interest. ~ Klaus Von Klitzing
Cities In The World quotes by Klaus Von Klitzing
Many countries in the world do not allow GMO crops because of the known health risks and the unknown consequences when it comes to human consumption. ~ John Bergman
Cities In The World quotes by John Bergman
In the far reaches of the world, under a lost and lonely hill, lies the TOMB OF HORRORS. This labyrinthine crypt is filled with terrible traps, strange and ferocious monsters, rich and magical treasures, and somewhere within rests the evil DemiLich. ~ Ernest Cline
Cities In The World quotes by Ernest Cline
The religions of the world are luminous in their individuality, and they have valuable social and soulmaking functions. Surely someday we will quit killing each other over their different strategies. ~ Coleman Barks
Cities In The World quotes by Coleman Barks
FH: All these ... weirdos, and me ... getting a little better every day right in the middle of 'em. I had never known ... I had never even imagined for a heartbeat that ... there might be a place in the world for people like us ... Jesus' Son ~ Denis Johnson
Cities In The World quotes by Denis Johnson
Prison is a still point in a turning world, and it is very easy to remain in the same place in jail while the world moves on. ~ Nelson Mandela
Cities In The World quotes by Nelson Mandela
When I feel sad, I try to think of someone else in the world who is suffering worse than me. Like someone in Seattle, who is hurting so bad financially that instead of a vente coffee at Starbucks every morning, they have to downsize to grande. ~ Jarod Kintz
Cities In The World quotes by Jarod Kintz
There are dark forces in the world that would have you believe that you can't succeed and that you're a failure and that you're evil and all this nonsense. ~ Frederick Lenz
Cities In The World quotes by Frederick Lenz
I want to live in a world where weeds still sometimes get the last word. ~ Heidi Barr
Cities In The World quotes by Heidi Barr
I think our music is more about seeing ourselves in each other and trying to find a more humanistic viewpoint for the world. ~ Conor Oberst
Cities In The World quotes by Conor Oberst
At a point in every person's life, one has to look deeply into the mirror of one's soul and decide one's unique truth in the world, not as we may want to see it or hope to see it, but as it is. ~ James McGreevey
Cities In The World quotes by James McGreevey
Just as women supplement men in private life, so they will supplement men in public life by concentrating their organized efforts on those objects which men are likely to ignore. There is a tremendous field for women as active protagonists of new ideas and new methods of political and social housekeeping. When organized and conscious of their power to influence their surroundings, women can use their newly acquired freedom in a great many ways to mold the world into a better place to live in. ~ Edward Bernays
Cities In The World quotes by Edward Bernays
The fight has been going on since...dominion in this world has found itself capable of sustentation by the exercise of fear as to the world to come. ~ Anthony Trollope
Cities In The World quotes by Anthony Trollope
There were more recent markings as well-initials scratched over the pictographs, some with dates. people were always wanting to announce their existence to the world in a way that would surpass the ages, creating some sort of immortality. For all Karigan knew, the more ancient carvings were just another incarnation of such an urge. ~ Kristen Britain
Cities In The World quotes by Kristen Britain
Love is the strangest, most illogical thing in the world. ~ Jennifer E. Smith
Cities In The World quotes by Jennifer E. Smith
The dream knows what they are waiting for, even if they don't themselves.
The end of everything.
The moment when it reveals its miracle boy and all the eyes will look and their seeing will be horror and glory and wonder and it will pierce the skin of the world, collapse dimensions, and open the doors and the work will breathe and dance in his shoes and the dream will be able to escape. ~ Lauren Beukes
Cities In The World quotes by Lauren Beukes
Our car is constantly in motion. It is raining in the streets we glide through, and this constitutes one more added pleasantness. Some people find it frightfully agreeable to see that it is raining and at the same time be permitted to sense that they themselves are not getting wet. The image produced by a gray, wet street has something consoling and dreamy about it, and so you stand now upon the rear platform of the creaking car that is rumbling its way forward, and you gaze straight ahead. Gazing straight ahead is something done by almost all the people who sit or stand in the electric. ~ Robert Walser
Cities In The World quotes by Robert Walser
When I was a schoolboy in England, the old bound volumes of Kipling in the library had gilt swastikas embossed on their covers. The symbol's 'hooks' were left-handed, as opposed to the right-handed ones of the Nazi hakenkreuz, but for a boy growing up after 1945 the shock of encountering the emblem at all was a memorable one. I later learned that in the mid-1930s Kipling had caused this 'signature' to be removed from all his future editions. Having initially sympathized with some of the early European fascist movements, he wanted to express his repudiation of Hitlerism (or 'the Hun,' as he would perhaps have preferred to say), and wanted no part in tainting the ancient Indian rune by association. In its origin it is a Hindu and Jainas symbol for light, and well worth rescuing. ~ Christopher Hitchens
Cities In The World quotes by Christopher Hitchens
So, I am a refugee, and I get very lonely. Is it my fault if I do not look like an English girl and I do not talk like a Nigerian? Well who says an English girl must have skin as pale as the clouds that float across her summers? Who says a Nigerian girl must speak in fallen English, as if English had collided with Ibo, high in the upper atmosphere, and rained down into her mouth in a shower that half-drowns her and leaves her choking up sweet tales about the bright African colours and the taste of fried plantain? Not like a storyteller, but like a victim rescued from the flood, coughing up the colonial water from her lungs?

Excuse me for learning your language properly. I am here to tell you a real story. I did not come to talk to you about the bright African colours. I am a born-again citizen of the developing world, and I will prove to you that the colour of my life is grey. ~ Chris Cleave
Cities In The World quotes by Chris Cleave
I do not understand how it is that financial institutions could think that they could take taxpayer money and then turn around and act like it's business as usual. I don't understand how they can't see that the world has changed in a fundamental way, that it is not business as usual when you take taxpayer dollars. ~ Elizabeth Warren
Cities In The World quotes by Elizabeth Warren
In a world where nothing exists by itself, where every division of one thing from another is a misperception - or misconception - of the way things really are, there are no eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, or mind.

We cannot, for example, draw a line around the eyes that is not necessarily arbitrary. There is no point at which the eyes begin or end, either in time or in space or conceptually. The eye bone is connected to the face bone, and the face bone is connected to the head bone, and the head bone is connected to the neck bone, and so it goes down to the toe bone, the floor bone, the earth bone, the worm bone, the dreaming butterfly bone. Thus, what we call our eyes are so many bubbles in a sea of foam. This is not only true of our eyes but of our other powers of sensation as well, including the mind. ~ Red Pine
Cities In The World quotes by Red Pine
It should be the highest ambition of every American to extend his views beyond himself, and to bear in mind that his conduct will not only affect himself, his country, and his immediate posterity; but that its influence may be co-extensive with the world, and stamp political happiness or misery on ages yet unborn. ~ George Washington
Cities In The World quotes by George Washington
My brothers were still catching sparrows when my cousin told me to give him the baby bird. I didn't want to, but I took the squirming bird out of my pocket anyway. I wanted another look at it. It was so small. I don't think it could fly yet. My cousin plucked the bird from my palm and went off with it. I should never have taken it out of my pocket. When he returned, the birds were all burnt to a crisp. Their bones were popping out of their skin. I couldn't even tell which of the birds was mine. I looked at their burnt feathers and blackened skin and burst into tears. I cried for him to give me back my bird, but it was too late. My yelling must have irritate him, because he grabbed the smallest one and shoved it in my face, and said, 'Here it is.' When I took that charred baby bird from him, I felt the world crash down on me. It was the first time I had ever held something that had died. I love you as much as the sorrow I felt. ~ Kyung-Sook Shin
Cities In The World quotes by Kyung-Sook Shin
We need to reach the millions who live in cities, the hundreds of thousands in industrial centers, the tens of thousands in medium-sized towns, the thousands in small towns, and the hundreds in villages
all these at once. Like a volcanic eruption, a spiritual revolution needs to spread through the country, to spur people to crucial decisions. People have to recognize the futility of splitting life up into politics, economics, the humanities, and religion. We must be awakened to a life in which all of these things are completely integrated. ~ Eberhard Arnold
Cities In The World quotes by Eberhard Arnold
I'm sure lots of people would love to ridicule me when I say this, but it is true: many people die from cold related deaths every winter, and here are studies that say that climate change in certain areas of the world would help those individuals. ~ Dana Perino
Cities In The World quotes by Dana Perino
The fundamental issue is: In the world of the Internet, is there a place for a packager of services? Does the customer want to go surf the Net and go to every one of 50,000 Web sites? Or will people pay a reasonable amount for somebody to go out and preselect and package what they want? My guess is they will both coexist. ~ Louis V. Gerstner, Jr.
Cities In The World quotes by Louis V. Gerstner, Jr.
They became sleepwalkers in a world of half-dreams and rambling thoughts with no break in the wearing march or the never-ending, silent black trunks that came and passed in countless thousands. ~ Terry Brooks
Cities In The World quotes by Terry Brooks
If we become addicted to the external, our interiority will haunt us. We will become hungry with a hunger no image, person, or deed can still. To be wholesome, we must remain truthful to our vulnerable complexity. In order to keep our balance, we need to hold the interior and exterior, visible and invisible, known and unknown, temporal and eternal, ancient and new, together. No one else can undertake this task for you. You are the one and only threshold of an inner world. This wholesomeness is holiness. To be holy is to be natural, to befriend the worlds that come to balance in you. ~ John O'Donohue
Cities In The World quotes by John O'Donohue
But God made us to life in community, to laugh and cry. To hurt and to celebrate with each other, no matter what were going through.
And transformation is tough, and we dont always end up where we think we will.
But we have to remember, that even when we struggle to believe in Him, He always believes in us.
He fills our lives with purpose and passion, if we just let Him.
And the best part of the journey, is that the God of the universe, sometimes allows us to play a part in changing the world. ~ Jim Britts
Cities In The World quotes by Jim Britts
The extinction of race consciousness as between Muslims is one of the outstanding achievements of Islam, and in the contemporary world there is, as it happens, a crying need for the propagation of this Islamic virtue. ~ Arnold J. Toynbee
Cities In The World quotes by Arnold J. Toynbee
I think the doctors are right. I'm convinced that's why many of us dumb down our surroundings. It's a way to insulate ourselves against the cold, dark world that often isn't very kind. So we distract ourselves with silly movies and other emotional
candy. Still, at the end of the day-and even more important, at the end of life-if we haven't prepared ourselves for what is coming, we've just put ourselves in a much scarier situation. ~ Jim Fletcher
Cities In The World quotes by Jim Fletcher
And in time it will be as though men had never come to this perfect corner of the world - never called it paradise on earth, never despoiled it with their dream factories; and in the golden hush of the afternoon all that will be heard will be the flittering of dragonflies, and the murmur of hummingbirds as they pass from bower to bower, looking for a place to sup sweetness. ~ Clive Barker
Cities In The World quotes by Clive Barker
I don't know if people feel this way, but I think by nature that when you start off as a young pop singer, they assume that you're a bit pampered, prissy, and precious, or that you live in a bubble and not in the real world. For me that's not the case. ~ Debbie Gibson
Cities In The World quotes by Debbie Gibson
Thinking back on it, I just really didn't have very many role models to look up to when it came to Asian actresses. And in that way, when I would see an Asian onscreen, it would be a secondary-type thing, and that's kind of how I ended up viewing myself in the world: as secondary. ~ Kimiko Glenn
Cities In The World quotes by Kimiko Glenn
One noteworthy study suggests that people who suppress negative emotions tend to leak those emotions later in unexpected ways. The psychologist Judith Grob asked people to hide their emotions when she showed them disgusting images. She even had them hold pens in their mouths to prevent them from frowning. She found that this group reported feeling less disgusted by the pictures than did those who'd been allowed to react naturally. Later, however, the people who hid their emotions suffered side effects. Their memory was impaired, and the negative emotions they'd suppressed seemed to color their outlook. When Grob had them fill in the missing letter to the word "gr_ss", for example, they were more likely than others to offer "gross" rather than "grass". "People who tend to [suppress their negative emotions] regularly," concludes Grob, "might start to see their world in a more negative light." p. 223 ~ Susan Cain
Cities In The World quotes by Susan Cain
So Janie began to think of Death. Death, that strange being with the huge square toes who lived way in the West. The great one who lived in the straight house like a platform without sides to it, and without a roof. What need has Death for a cover, and what winds can blow against him? He stands in his high house that overlooks the world. Stands watchful and motionless all day with his sword drawn back, waiting for the messenger to bid him come. Been standing there before there was a where or a when or a then. She was liable to find a feather from his wings lying in her yard any day now. She was sad and afraid too. Poor Jody! He ought not to have to wrassle in there by himself. She sent Sam in to suggest a visit, but Jody said No. These medical doctors wuz all right with the Godly sick, but they didn't know a thing about a case like his. He'd be all right just as soon as the two-headed man found what had been buried against him. He wasn't going to die at all. That was what he thought. But Sam told her different, so she knew. And then if he hadn't the next morning she was bound to know, for people began to gather in the big yard under the palm and china-berry trees. People who would not have dared to foot the place before crept in and did not come to the house. Just squatted under the trees and waited. Rumor, that wingless bird, had shadowed over the town. ~ Zora Neale Hurston
Cities In The World quotes by Zora Neale Hurston
Crime writers, I've noticed, can be jumpy. They live in a world where there are murderers on the loose and they haven't been caught yet! ~ Sara Sheridan
Cities In The World quotes by Sara Sheridan
Neo-Darwinism and Mutations

In order to find a solution, Darwinists advanced the
"Modern Synthetic Theory," or as it is more commonly
known, Neo-Darwinism, at the end of the 1930s. Neo-
Darwinism added mutations, which are distortions formed
in the genes of living beings due to such external factors
as radiation or replication errors, as the "cause of favorable
variations" in addition to natural mutation.

Today, the model that stands for evolution in the world
is Neo-Darwinism. The theory maintains that millions of living
beings formed as a result of a process whereby numerous
complex organs of these organisms (e.g., ears, eyes,
lungs, and wings) underwent "mutations," that is, genetic
disorders. Yet, there is an outright scientific fact that totally
undermines this theory: Mutations do not cause living
beings to develop; on the contrary, they are always harmful.
The reason for this is very simple: DNA has a very complex
structure, and random effects can only harm it. The
American geneticist B. G. Ranganathan explains this as
follows:

First, genuine mutations are very rare in nature. Secondly,
most mutations are harmful since they are random, rather
than orderly changes in the structure of genes; any random
change in a highly ordered system will be for the
worse, not for the better. For example, if an earthquake
were to shake a highly ~ Harun Yahya
