Present Day Peru

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

    For present joys are more to flesh and blood
    Than a dull prospect of a distant good.
    John Dryden (1631–1700)

    An hour of winter day might seem too short
    To make it worth life’s while to wake and sport.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    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)
