Famous quotes containing the words alabama, state and/or route:

“The wealthy man is not he who has money, but he who has the means to live in the luxurious state of early spring.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (18601904)
“A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
