Famous quotes containing the words places of, places and/or interest:

    “Why needs a man be rich? Why must he have horses, fine garments, handsome apartments, access to public houses, and places of amusement? Only for want of thought.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “All places that the eye of heaven visits
    Are to a wise man ports and happy havens.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Consider the difference between looking and staring. A look is voluntary; it is also mobile, rising and falling in intensity as its foci of interest are taken up and then exhausted. A stare has, essentially, the character of a compulsion; it is steady, unmodulated, “fixed.””
    —Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
