Douglas/places

Famous quotes containing the words douglas and/or places:

“I want to die while you love me,
And never, never see
The glory of this perfect day
Grow dim, or cease to be!”

“The places we have known do not only belong to the world of space in which we situate them for the sake of simplicity. They were but a thin slice between contiguous impression which formed our lives back then; the memory of a certain image is but the regret of a certain instant; and the houses, the roads, the avenues are fleeting, alas! as the years.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
