Famous quotes containing the word places:

    “Literature is where I go to explore the highest and lowest places in human society and in the human spirit, where I hope to find not absolute truth but the truth of the tale, of the imagination and of the heart.”
    —Salman Rushdie (b. 1947)

    “All places are distant from heaven alike.”
    —Robert Burton (1577–1640)

    “All men are lonely. But sometimes it seems to me that we Americans are the loneliest of all. Our hunger for foreign places and new ways has been with us almost like a national disease. Our literature is stamped with a quality of longing and unrest, and our writers have been great wanderers.”
    —Carson McCullers (1917–1967)
