Happy International Cat Day to the ones who love cats, and I found a quote to celebrate this day...

"Way down deep, we're all motivated by the same urges. Cats have the courage to live by them."- Jim Davis, creator of the comic strip cat named Garfield (July 28, 1945: I don't own that quote or Garfield whatsoever)

All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake up in the day to find it was vanity, but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible.”

    Edited because the answer was wrong and needs rewording: I am one of the great world cities that sits near major fault lines. Cats roam my ancient ruins. Empires fought endlessly over me because I connected continents. Where am I?”
