Catalan Parliament

Famous quotes containing the words catalan and/or parliament:

“The table kills more people than war does.”
—Catalan proverb, quoted in Colman Andrews, Catalan Cuisine.

“Undershaft: Alcohol is a very necessary article. It heals the sick—Barbara: It does nothing of the sort. Undershaft: Well, it assists the doctor: that is perhaps a less questionable way of putting it. It makes life bearable to millions of people who could not endure their existence if they were quite sober. It enables Parliament to do things at eleven at night that no sane person would do at eleven in the morning.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
