Poor Countries

Famous quotes containing the words poor and/or countries:

    A poor man with nothing in his belly needs hope, illusion, more than bread.
    Georges Bernanos (1888–1948)

    Our democracy, our culture, our whole way of life is a spectacular triumph of the blah. Why not have a political convention without politics to nominate a leader who’s out in front of nobody?... Maybe our national mindlessness is the very thing that keeps us from turning into one of those smelly European countries full of pseudo-reds and crypto-fascists and greens who dress like forest elves.
    —P.J. (Patrick Jake)
