Famous quotes containing the words place and/or names:

    “We turned to other things.
    I haven’t any memory have you?
    Of ever coming to the place again
    To see if the birds lived the first night through.
    And so at last to learn to use their wings.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “If marriages were made by putting all the men’s names into one sack and the women’s names into another, and having them taken out by a blindfolded child like lottery numbers, there would be just as high a percentage of happy marriages as we have here in England.... If you can tell me of any trustworthy method of selecting a wife, I shall be happy to make use of it.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
