Famous quotes containing the words travelling, grave and/or stories:

    Seeking in one place always another,
    And travelling further from mother, from mother....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Death can only be profitable: there’s no need to eat, drink, pay taxes, offend people, and since a person lies in a grave for hundreds or thousands of years, if you count it up the profit turns out to be enormous.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    I’m the only woman reporter they have, so I get all the meat boycott stories and all the meatless food stories.... Actually, I’ve only cooked three meals in my life. The most uncomfortable place for me in the whole world is in a kitchen.
    Theresa Brown (b. 1957)
