Famous quotes containing the word place:
“moving aside to give him
a place at the fire, the poet
made him welcome, asking
for news of home.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“To a person uninstructed in natural history, his country or sea-side stroll is a walk through a gallery filled with wonderful works of art, nine-tenths of which have their faces turned to the wall. Teach him something of natural history, and you place in his hands a catalogue of those which are worth turning round.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
