Famous quotes containing the words places and/or interest:
“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)
“But what would interest you about the brook,
It’s always cold in summer, warm in winter.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
