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)

    The most common error made in matters of appearance is the belief that one should disdain the superficial and let the true beauty of one’s soul shine through. If there are places on your body where this is a possibility, you are not attractive—you are leaking.
    Fran Lebowitz (b. 1951)

    All places are alike,
    And every earth is fit for burial.
    Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)
