I was replying to a friend’s blog on my thoughts on San Francisco today, and found some quotes that mirror my sentiments…
“San Francisco is the longest lasting love affair of my life. Her beauty inspires me anew each day and I am very thankful to be able to live here on the edge of the continent in what I feel is the heart beat of the world.” ~Nicole, sfheart.com
“San Francisco is a city where people are never more abroad than when they are at home” ~Benjamin F.Taylor
“Perpetual spring, the flare of adventure in the blood, the impulse of men who packed Virgil with their bean-bags on the overland journey, conspired~ to make San Francisco a city of artists.” ~ William Henry Irwin
“I have seen few things as beautiful as a 6:30am lift-off from San Francisco International Airport in the autumn. From above, the rippled fog layer laps against the shores of the foothills like a voluminous cotton ocean.”
~Eric Cheng
To this day, with all my travels, SF is still for me, top 3 best city in the world. Its beauty, diversity, intellect, open mind, and endless possibilities makes it an amazing place to call home. As i sit here typing away in Los Angeles, I realize I really miss SF. One day I’ll be back there. Until then, its off to Chicago and then Australia for me!
