Place

Famous quotes containing the word place:

“In a language known to us, we have substituted the opacity of the sounds with the transparence of the ideas. But a language we do not know is a closed place in which the one we love can deceive us, making us, locked outside and convulsed in our impotence, incapable of seeing or preventing anything.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)

“Being fooled, by foolery thrive;
There’s place and means for every man alive.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“a place in the world’s core,
Where passion grows to be a changeless thing,
Like charmèd apples made of chrysoprase,
Or chrysoberyl, or beryl, or chrysolite;
And there, in juggleries of sight and sense,
Become one movement, energy, delight....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
