“No other place can so convincingly claim to be the capital of capitalism, the capital of the 20th century and the capital of the world.”
Kenneth T. Jackson

“The experiment was successful, and on January 30, 1828, the first bus in Paris traveled from the Madeleine to the Bastille. By 1832 Baudry’s rudimentary transit system had been copied in Bordeaux, Lyons, and London. Essentially, the omnibus combined the functions of the hackney and the stagecoach.31”
Kenneth T. Jackson, Crabgrass Frontier: The Suburbanization of the United States

“Our property seems to me the most beautiful in the world. It is so close to Babylon that we enjoy all the advantages of the city, and yet when we come home we are away from all the noise and dust.”
Kenneth T. Jackson, Crabgrass Frontier: The Suburbanization of the United States
