Poor Countries

Famous quotes containing the words poor and/or countries:

    “Should poor souls fear a shade or night,
    Who came sure from a sea of light?
    Or since those drops are all sent back
    So sure to thee, that none doth lack,
    Why should frail flesh doubt any more
    That what God takes, He’ll not restore?”
    —Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

    “In countries where associations are free, secret societies are unknown. In America there are factions, but no conspiracies.”
