Famous quotes containing the word interesting:
“The most interesting thing which I heard of, in this township of Hull, was an unfailing spring, whose locality was pointed out to me on the side of a distant hill, as I was panting along the shore, though I did not visit it. Perhaps, if I should go through Rome, it would be some spring on the Capitoline Hill I should remember the longest.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“My experience of ships is that on them one makes an interesting discovery about the world. One finds one can do without it completely.”
—Malcolm Bradbury (b. 1932)
“It is, after all, very interesting that sound can reflect like water, like a mirror. And notice that Vinteuils phrase only shows me that to which I did not pay attention at the time. Of my worries, of my loves at that time, it does not recall a thing, it has made the exchange.”
—Marcel Proust (18711922)
