Famous quotes containing the word places:

    “Traveling, you realize that differences are lost: each city takes to resembling all cities, places exchange their form, order, distances, a shapeless dust cloud invades the continents.”
    —Italo Calvino (1923–1985)

    “All places are distant from heaven alike.”
    —Robert Burton (1577–1640)

    “I was never one to patiently pick up broken fragments and glue them together again and tell myself that the mended whole was as good as new. What is broken is broken—and I’d rather remember it as it was at its best than mend it and see the broken places as long as I lived.... I wish I could care what you do or where you go, but I can’t. My dear, I don’t give a damn.”
    —Margaret Mitchell (1900–1949)
