Bulgarian Idea

Famous quotes containing the words bulgarian and/or idea:

“In the end we beat them with Levi 501 jeans. Seventy-two years of Communist indoctrination and propaganda was drowned out by a three-ounce Sony Walkman. A huge totalitarian system ... has been brought to its knees because nobody wants to wear Bulgarian shoes.... Now they’re lunch, and we’re number one on the planet.”
—P.J. (Patrick Jake)

“If a theme or idea is too near the surface, the novel becomes simply a tract illustrating an idea.”
