Latin American

Famous quotes containing the words latin and/or american:

“OUR Latin books in motly row,
Invite us to our task—
Gay Horace, stately Cicero:
Yet there’s one verb, when once we know,
No higher skill we ask:
This ranks all other lore above—
We’ve learned “’Amare’ means ‘to love’!””
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

“In every American there is an air of incorrigible innocence, which seems to conceal a diabolical cunning.”
—A.E. (Alfred Edward)
