If you would be known, and not know, vegetate in a village; If you would know, and not be known, live in a city.
- Charles Caleb Colton
(I guess it depends what you want to know. If you want to know how to raise chickens and sheep, or how to read the seasons and the night sky, then a city is not much use. My village is far too lively for vegetating)
