Famous quotes containing the words place and/or final:
“History takes place between the Fall and the Apocalypse, with a narrow escape route called Salvation.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“A great biography should, like the close of a great drama, leave behind it a feeling of serenity. We collect into a small bunch the flowers, the few flowers, which brought sweetness into a life, and present it as an offering to an accomplished destiny. It is the dying refrain of a completed song, the final verse of a finished poem.”
—André Maurois (1885–1967)
