If more politicians knew poetry, and more poets knew politics, the world would be a little better place to live.
I'm a nomad. I have a place in New York in the Flatiron District, and I have a place in Paris in Ile Saint-Louis, and I spend a lot of time in Congo.
The English countryside is the most staggeringly beautiful place. I can't spend as much time there as I like, but I like everything about it. I like fishing, I like clay- pigeon shooting.
I am dancing all the time. Every gesture, the body line of every pose, the way I get from place to place, the movement in the acting - none of it would be the way it is if I weren't a dancer.
All the fossils that we have ever found have always been found in the appropriate place in the time sequence. There are no fossils in the wrong place.
Baltimore is one of the most beautiful towns, really. And trust me, I don't say that about every place. There is just something so quaint, old and beautiful about this place.
Vinny Gambini: Did you fall in your place or somebody else's? Neckbrace: My place. Vinny Gambini: Shit.
I tramped. When I was on the freight trains, I wasn't looking for work. I was looking to go from place to place without paying any money.
The most impactful place that I've been to where I was just completely awestruck, happy, moved is Victoria Falls between Zambia and Zimbabwe. It is probably the most beautiful and romantic place in the world.

When your persona begins to take over your music and becomes more important, you enter a dangerous place. Once you have people around you who don't question you, you're in a dangerous place.
There's a vulnerability in music but you've also got to protect your sacred place and have a place you can still retire to that no one else knows about. So that's a thing I just try to balance.
I don't really care how or why Obama got to the right place on gay marriage. I'm just glad he got there.
Kauai is kind of my place where I go to get centered. It's always my place to come back and feel normal again.
If I am in a beautiful place, but I don't like the people, I am miserable.
I like to see a man proud of the place in which he lives. I like to see a man live so that his place will be proud of him.
My mother was an avid reader...She loved books about romance. Books that took place in faraway places and times. Stories with costumes...
I simply went down there to catch up with an old mate of mine, who owns the place. He's the one who wrote the book on the place, but no, no movie, just a beer.
As you go along, you literally collect places. I'm fed up with going to places; I shan't go to anymore.
