Place

Famous quotes containing the word place:

    he went down
    As when a lordly cedar, green with boughs,
    Goes down with a great shout upon the hills,
    And leaves a lonesome place against the sky.
    Edwin Markham (1852–1940)

    Some of us who sit upon this platform have many a time been clamored down, and told that we had no right to speak, and that we were out of our place in public meetings; far be it from us, when women assemble, and a man has a thought in his soul, burning for utterance, to retaliate upon him.
    Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)

    Heaven might be defined as the place which men avoid.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
