Famous quotes containing the words places and/or interest:
“All good books are alike in that they are truer than if they had really happened and after you are finished reading one you will feel that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you; the good and the bad, the ecstasy, the remorse, and sorrow, the people and the places and how the weather was. If you can get so that you can give that to people, then you are a writer.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
“Those people have no real interest in a science who only begin to get excited about it when they themselves have made discoveries in it.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
