Book Takes Place

Famous quotes containing the words book, takes and/or place:

    leaving the page of the book carelessly open,
    something unsaid, the phone off the hook
    and the love, whatever it was, an infection.

    It takes a heap o’ livin’ in a house t’ make it home,
    A heap o’ sun an’ shadder, an’ ye sometimes have t’ roam
    Afore ye really ‘preciate the things ye lef’ behind,
    An’ hunger fer ‘em somehow, with ‘em allus on yer mind.
    Edgar Albert Guest (1881–1959)

    Europe is, perhaps, the least worn-out of the continents, because it is the most lived in. A place that is lived in lives.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
