Famous quotes containing the word places:

    “Why needs a man be rich? Why must he have horses, fine garments, handsome apartments, access to public houses, and places of amusement? Only for want of thought.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Coke and Blackstone hardly shed so much light into obscure spiritual places as the Hebrew prophets.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “A part, a large part, of travelling is an engagement of the ego v. the world.... The world is hydra headed, as old as the rocks and as changing as the sea, enmeshed inextricably in its ways. The ego wants to arrive at places safely and on time.”
    —Sybille Bedford (b. 1911)
