Famous quotes containing the words places and/or interest:

    “There are two places in the world where men can most effectively disappear—the city of London and the South Seas.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “Any effort in philosophy to make the obscure obvious is likely to be unappealing, for the penalty of failure is confusion while the reward of success is banality. An answer, once found, is dull; and the only remaining interest lies in a further effort to render equally dull what is still obscure enough to be intriguing.”
    —Nelson Goodman (b. 1906)
