Perot Received

Famous quotes containing the words perot and/or received:

    If we did not have such a thing as an airplane today, we would probably create something the size of NASA to make one.
    —H. Ross Perot (b. 1930)

    I waited alone, in the company of orchids, roses and violets who—like people waiting beside you, but to whom you are unknown—maintained a silence which their individuality of living things rendered more imposing and in their chilly manner received the heat from an incandescent coal fire, preciously placed behind a crystal glass, in a white marble tub where it dropped, from time to time, its dangerous rubies.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
