Famous quotes containing the word place:
“We place no particular value upon the possession of a virtue until we detect its complete absence in our adversary.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“There is a place where we are always alone with our own mortality, where we must simply have something greater than ourselves to hold onto—God or history or politics or literature or a belief in the healing power of love, or even righteous anger.... A reason to believe, a way to take the world by the throat and insist that there is more to this life than we have ever imagined.”
—Dorothy Allison (b. 1949)
