Famous quotes containing the words place and/or names:
“This new tablet, O my brothers, I place over you: become hard!”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
““Well then, it’s Granny speaking: ‘I dunnow!
Mebbe I’m wrong to take it as I do.
There ain’t no names quite like the old ones, though,
Nor never will be to my way of thinking.
One mustn’t bear too hard on the newcomers,
But there’s a dite too many of them for comfort....’””
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
