Bulgarian Poet

Famous quotes containing the words bulgarian and/or poet:

    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)

    But though Heaven made him poor, with reverence speaking,
    He never was a poet of God’s making;
    The midwife laid her hand on his thick skull,
    With this prophetic blessing—Be thou dull;
    John Dryden (1631–1700)
