Hiangrae Lee
The saying "towns don't appear from nowhere" emphasizes that established settlements like towns don't spontaneously emerge without a history or a foundation. It implies that towns have a gradual development, with roots in earlier settlements, human activity, and natural factors. It's a reminder that any town you see today has a story, a process of growth, and is not a sudden creation.
