Famous quotes containing the words places and/or interest:

    “All places are alike,
    And every earth is fit for burial.”
    —Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)

    “Any effort in philosophy to make the obscure obvious is likely to be unappealing, for the penalty of failure is confusion while the reward of success is banality. An answer, once found, is dull; and the only remaining interest lies in a further effort to render equally dull what is still obscure enough to be intriguing.”
    —Nelson Goodman (b. 1906)
