Place Choice

Famous quotes containing the words place and/or choice:

    No, I have never found
    The place where I could say
    This is my proper ground,
    Here I shall stay;
    Nor met that special one
    Who has an instant claim
    On everything I own
    Down to my name....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Nobody is so constituted as to be able to live everywhere and anywhere; and he who has great duties to perform, which lay claim to all his strength, has, in this respect, a very limited choice. The influence of climate upon the bodily functions ... extends so far, that a blunder in the choice of locality and climate is able not only to alienate a man from his actual duty, but also to withhold it from him altogether, so that he never even comes face to face with it.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
