“That's the thing about love. You can plan it, and schedule it, and map it out. You can tell it how you want it to be, and where you want it to go, and what it's supposed to do. You can try to make it fit you. But it won't listen to any of it. Love puts itself first, and makes its own plans. It maps you out instead. Maybe that's what makes it perfect.” WantTryingFirstsPerfectPlansLove YouFitMapsSchedules Author:Holly Smale
“When I first decided I wanted to be a writer, when I was 10, 11 years old, the books that I loved obviously and openly fit that description: They came with maps and glossaries and timelines - books like Lord Of The Rings, Dune, The Chronicles Of Narnia. I imagined that's what being a writer was: You invented a world, and you did it in a very detailed way, and you told stories that were set in that world.” WorldWayYearsFirstsBookStoriesWantedLordFitDecidedRingsDescriptionMapsChroniclesNarniaTimelines Author:Michael Chabon
“I do notice that my songs fit all over the map, even in terms of the colloquialisms in them. The songs come out with their references intact, almost unheeded by me. It's like they existed somehow before they met me with their relationship to the tradition, and then they just end up coming through me at that moment because of my relationship to some certain kind of music that I've listened to in my life. I know that sounds a little bit woooey.” KnowsKindLittlesEndsMomentsCertainSongBitsSoundTermFitMetsLittle BitTraditionMapsThat Moment Author:Mirah
“You can fit two United States and maybe a third one into the entire continent of Africa, but on a map we make the entire continent of Africa look like the size of the United States, which is why a lot of people don't know that Africa is a continent. They think it's a country because it looks as big as we do.” PeopleThinkingKnowsLooksTwoCountryStatesBigsUnitedUnited StatesFitThirdsSizeMapsContinents Author:Baron Vaughn
“I was extremely frustrated, almost at the point of giving up on coming up with a name for the project (because I'm awful at it), when I decided to play the 'put a pen somewhere on a map with your eyes closed' game with South Africa. About the 5th try was St. Lucia in South Africa, which coincidentally also happens to be an idyllic sub-tropical seaside resort town. The name seemed to fit with the mood of the music, and so after a while it just stuck.” GivingTryingPlayHappensEyeGamesNamesFitGiving UpProjectsDecidedTownsSouthStuckMoodAwfulMapsPensSouth AfricaFrustratedResortsTropicalIdyllic Author:St. Lucia
