Average Place

Famous quotes containing the words average and/or place:

    The idea that leisure is of value in itself is only conditionally true.... The average man simply spends his leisure as a dog spends it. His recreations are all puerile, and the time supposed to benefit him really only stupefies him.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    Thy hatred for this misery befallen;
    On me already lost, me than thyself
    More miserable. Both have sinned, but thou
    Against God only; I against God and thee,
    And to the place of judgment will return,
    There with my cries importune Heaven, that all
    The sentence, from thy head removed, may light
    On me, sole cause to thee of all this woe,
    Me, me only, just object of his ire.”
    John Milton (1608–1674)
