Famous quotes containing the word places:

    Look,
    when it is over he places her,
    like a phone, back on the hook.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Speak, ye that ride on white asses, ye that sit in judgment, and walk by the way.
    They that are delivered from the noise of archers in the places of
    drawing water, there shall they rehearse the righteous acts of the
    Lord,
    Bible: Hebrew Judges (l. V, 10–11)

    All good books are alike in that they are truer than if they had really happened and after you are finished reading one you will feel that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you; the good and the bad, the ecstasy, the remorse, and sorrow, the people and the places and how the weather was. If you can get so that you can give that to people, then you are a writer.
    Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
