Famous quotes containing the word places:

    ‘Whence thou return’st, and whither wentst, I know;
    For God is also in sleep; and dreams advise,
    Which he hath sent propitious, some great good
    Presaging, since, with sorrow and heart’s distress,
    Wearied I fell asleep: but now lead on;
    In me is no delay; without thee here to stay,
    Is to go hence unwilling; thou to me
    Art all things under Heaven, all places thou,
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    All places are alike,
    And every earth is fit for burial.
    Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)
