Lewis Mumford, _The Culture of Cities_ (Harcourt Brace, 1970; first published in 1938), 3 "The city is a fact in nature, like a cave, a run of mackerel or an ant-heap. But it is also a conscious work of art, and it holds within its communal framework many simpler and more personal forms of art. Mind *takes form* in the city; and in turn, urban forms condition mind."
