Famous quotes containing the word places:
“All of childhoods unanswered questions must finally be passed back to the town and answered there. Heroes and bogey men, values and dislikes, are first encountered and labeled in that early environment. In later years they change faces, places and maybe races, tactics, intensities and goals, but beneath those penetrable masks they wear forever the stocking-capped faces of childhood.”
—Maya Angelou (b. 1928)
“There are few places outside his own play where a child can contribute to the world in which he finds himself. His world: dominated by adults who tell him what to do and when to do itbenevolent tyrants who dispense gifts to their good subjects and punishment to their bad ones, who are amused at the cleverness of children and annoyed by their stupidities.”
—Viola Spolin (b. 1911)
“The most common error made in matters of appearance is the belief that one should disdain the superficial and let the true beauty of ones soul shine through. If there are places on your body where this is a possibility, you are not attractiveyou are leaking.”
—Fran Lebowitz (b. 1951)
