Famous quotes containing the words twelve and/or places:

    “A whole village-full of sensuous emotion, scattered abroad all the year long, surged here in a focus for an hour. The forty hearts of those waving couples were beating as they had not done since, twelve months before, they had come together in similar jollity. For the time Paganism was revived in their hearts, the pride of life was all in all, and they adored none other than themselves.”
    —Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    “Look,
    when it is over he places her,
    like a phone, back on the hook.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
