Present Day Peru

Famous quotes containing the words present, day and/or peru:

    Sometimes all you need to do to win clever people over to a principle is to present it in the form of a shocking paradox.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Some day the war will end, but, oh, I knew
    When he went walking grandly out that door
    That my sweet love would have to be untrue.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    The idea that nations should love one another, or that business concerns or marketing boards should love one another, or that a man in Portugal should love a man in Peru of whom he has never heard—it is absurd, unreal, dangerous.... The fact is we can only love what we know personally. And we cannot know much.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
