Cheek Micronation Founded

Famous quotes containing the words cheek and/or founded:

“‘Twill not now avail to tan

Roses bleach, the goats are dry,
Lisbon quakes, the people cry.”

“Human life is thus only a perpetual illusion; men deceive and flatter each other. No one speaks of us in our presence as he does of us in our absence. Human society is founded on mutual deceit; few friendships would endure if each knew what his friend said of him in his absence, although he then spoke in sincerity and without passion.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
