Place

Famous quotes containing the word place:

    The distance between your place in the kitchen and Miss Vollard’s place in the dining room is considerable.
    Blake Edwards (b. 1922)

    Europe is, perhaps, the least worn-out of the continents, because it is the most lived in. A place that is lived in lives.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Why was the human race created? Or at least why wasn’t something creditable created in place of it? God had His opportunity. He could have made a reputation. But no, He must commit this grotesque folly—a lark which must have cost Him a regret or two when He came to think it over and observe effects.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
