Famous quotes containing the words place and/or names:

    “We Americans have always considered Hollywood, at best, a sinkhole of depraved venality. And, of course, it is. It is not a Protective Monastery of Aesthetic Truth. It is a place where everything is incredibly expensive.”
    —David Mamet (b. 1947)

    “You shall see men you never heard of before, whose names you don’t know,... and many other wild and noble sights before night, such as they who sit in parlors never dream of.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
