Libya Tripoli Quotes

“And now again the story of Tripoli changes.
But whatever the outcome, she will have still her limpid skies, her air like wine, and a climate where it is a sin to acknowledge an ache or a pain, old age or unhappiness. ”
― Mabel Loomis Todd, Tripoli The Mysterious

“All uncleanness seems washed clean in its lonely stretches ; the life-giving sun and ardent air must still bring singular joy, the eager morning breeze, the opalescent distance, the
plaintive evening sky all will continue to tell an exquisite if inarticulate story.
That Tripoli will remain, whatever the
Powers may decree.”
― Mabel Loomis Todd, Tripoli The Mysterious
