Famous quotes containing the words places, named and/or mueller:

    Literature is where I go to explore the highest and lowest places in human society and in the human spirit, where I hope to find not absolute truth but the truth of the tale, of the imagination and of the heart.
    Salman Rushdie (b. 1947)

    We named you Joy.
    I, who was never quite sure
    about being a girl, needed another
    life, another image to remind me.
    And this was my worst guilt; you could not cure
    nor soothe it. I made you to find me.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    I want to celebrate these elms which have been spared by the plague, these survivors of a once flourishing tribe commemorated by all the Elm Streets in America. But to celebrate them is to be silent about the people who sit and sleep underneath them, the homeless poor who are hauled away by the city like trash, except it has no place to dump them. To speak of one thing is to suppress another.
    —Lisel Mueller (b. 1924)
