Famous quotes containing the words place and/or names:
“But this place is too cold for hell. I’ll devil-porter it no further; I had thought to have let in some of all professions that go the primrose way to th’ everlasting bonfire.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“I do not see why, since America and her autumn woods have been discovered, our leaves should not compete with the precious stones in giving names to colors; and, indeed, I believe that in course of time the names of some of our trees and shrubs, as well as flowers, will get into our popular chromatic nomenclature.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
