“You won't find a new country, won't find another shore.
This city will always pursue you.”

Constantine P. Cavafy (1863–1933) Greek poet

" The City http://cavafis.compupress.gr/kave_33.htm", st. 2 (1910)
Context: You won't find a new country, won't find another shore.
This city will always pursue you.
You'll walk the same streets, grow old
in the same neighbourhoods, turn grey in these same houses.
You'll always end up in this city. Don't hope for things elsewhere:
there's no ship for you, there's no road.
Now that you've wasted your life here, in this small corner,
you've destroyed it everywhere in the world.
