Place Names

Famous quotes containing the words place and/or names:

    He may not shine with courtly graces,
    But yet, his kind, respectful air
    To woman, whatsoe’er her place is,
    It might be well if kings could share.
    So, for the chivalric true gentleman,
    Give me, I say, our own American.
    Ella Wheeler Wilcox (1855–1919)

    Almanacked, their names live; they
    Have slipped their names, and stand at ease,
    Or gallop for what must be joy,
    Philip Larkin (1922–1985)
