Place Quotes (page 144)

I collect church collapses, recreationally. Did you see the recent one in Sicily? Marvelous! The facade fell on sixty-five grandmothers at a special mass. Was that evil? If so, who did it? If he's up there, he just loves it, Officer Starling. Typhoid and swans - it all comes from the same place. Thomas Harris
L. Ron Hubbard quote: "Scientology does not teach you. It only reminds you. For the..."
Scientology does not teach you. It only reminds you. For the information was yours in the first place. L. Ron Hubbard
I remember one time - it might have been a couple times - at the Fillmore East in 1970, I was opening for this sorry-ass cat named Steve Miller. Steve Miller didn't have his shit going for him, so I'm pissed because I got to open for this non-playing motherfucker just because he had one or two sorry-ass records out. So I would come late and he would have to go on first and then we got there we smoked the motherfucking place, everybody dug it. Miles Davis
Albert Camus quote: "If the descent is thus sometimes performed in sorrow, it can..."
If the descent is thus sometimes performed in sorrow, it can also take place in joy. Albert Camus
As young people we want something to slow us down and keep us trapped in one place long enough to look below the surface of the world. That disaster is a car crash or a war. To make us sit still. It can be getting cancer or getting pregnant. The important part is how it seems to catch us by surprise. That disaster stops us from living the life we'd planned as children - a life of constant dashing around. Chuck Palahniuk
She didn't like being twelve. It felt like someplace between who she'd been and who she was about to be. It felt like no place at all. Alice Hoffman
It was because all we wanted was each other's constant love and attention and for no one else to receive that love and attention, which is a selfish and difficult place to be in a relationship. We were emotionally retarded, and that was the best we could do at the time. Anthony Kiedis
They cannot scare me with their empty spaces Between stars—on stars where no human race is. I have it in me so much nearer home To scare myself with my own desert places. Robert Frost
Modern traveling is not traveling at all; it is merely being sent to a place, and very little different from becoming a parcel. John Ruskin
James Joyce quote: "He thought that he was sick in his heart if you could be sick..."
He thought that he was sick in his heart if you could be sick in that place. James Joyce
These Souls with great Material Possessions were allowed this because of Past Good Works in their Previous Life, but now feel there is no need for Spiritual Progress. They are too easily forgetting why they were granted this Material Wealth in the first place. Therefore we must stop them from accumulating more Material Gains to Guide them back to the right path. Mary Todd Lincoln
In America, alas, beauty has become something you drive to, and nature an either/or proposition--either you ruthlessly subjugate it, as at Tocks Dam and a million other places, or you deify it, treat it as something holy and remote, a thing apart, as along the Appalachian Trail. Seldom would it occur to anyone on either side that people and nature could coexist to their mutual benefit--that, say, a more graceful bridge across the Delaware River might actually set off the grandeur around it,... Bill Bryson
Terry Goodkind quote: "There is no place so dangerous as a world without magic."
There is no place so dangerous as a world without magic. Terry Goodkind
Ezra Taft Benson quote: "When we put God first, all other things fall into their proper..."
When we put God first, all other things fall into their proper place or drop out of our lives. Ezra Taft Benson
One thing I learned as a journalist is that there is at least one disgruntled person in every workplace in America -- and at least double that number with a conscience. Hard as they try, they simply can't turn their heads away from an injustice when they see one taking place. Michael Moore
