Place Choice

Famous quotes containing the words place and/or choice:

“I have wrestled with death. It is the most unexciting contest you can imagine. It takes place in an impalpable greyness, with nothing underfoot, with nothing around, without spectators, without clamor, without glory, without the great desire of victory, without the great desire of defeat, in a sickly atmosphere of tepid skepticism, without much belief in your own right, and still less in that of your adversary.”
—Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)

“Romanticism is found precisely neither in the choice of subjects nor in exact truth, but in a way of feeling.”
—Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
