Famous quotes containing the word places:

    “Coke and Blackstone hardly shed so much light into obscure spiritual places as the Hebrew prophets.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “The mother whose self-image is dependent on her children places on those children the responsibility for her own identity, and her involvement in the details of their lives can put great pressure on the children. A child suffers when everything he or she does is extremely important to a parent; this kind of over-involvement can turn even a small problem into a crisis.”
    —Grace Baruch (20th century)

    “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)
