Dolly PartonI’ll stay in Memphis.

Marilyn MonroeIt is not, of course, complete yet – but some sentences were understood this afternoon… I feel that I have at last struck the solution of a great problem – and the day is coming when telegraph wires will be laid onto houses just like water or gas – and friends converse with each other without leaving home.

Anthony BourdainSevier County is a great area.
