Adams/places

Famous quotes containing the words adams and/or places:

    Dates are stupidly annoying—what we want is not dates but taste;Myet we are uncomfortable without them.
    —Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

    All men are lonely. But sometimes it seems to me that we Americans are the loneliest of all. Our hunger for foreign places and new ways has been with us almost like a national disease. Our literature is stamped with a quality of longing and unrest, and our writers have been great wanderers.
    Carson McCullers (1917–1967)
