Famous quotes containing the word places:

    “The greatest, or rather the most prominent, part of this city was constructed with the design to offer the deadest resistance to leaden and iron missiles that might be cast against it. But it is a remarkable meteorological and psychological fact, that it is rarely known to rain lead with much violence, except on places so constructed.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Words whispered on Earth are heard in Heaven like thunder; evil done in dark places the gods see like lightning.”
    —Chinese proverb.
