Famous quotes containing the words rich and/or places:
“Alas, alas for Hamelin!
There came into many a burgher’s pate
A text which says that Heaven’s Gate
Opes to the rich at as easy rate
As the needle’s eye takes a camel in!”
—Robert Browning (1812–1889)
“People who live in quiet, remote places are apt to give good dinners. They are the oft-recurring excitement of an otherwise unemotional, dull existence. They linger, each of these dinners, in our palimpsest memories, each recorded clearly, so that it does not blot out the others.”
—M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)
