Famous quotes containing the words peter and/or barca:

    Vice is a creature of such hideous mien ... that the more you see it the better you like it.
    —Finley Peter Dunne (1867–1936)

    These flowers, which were splendid and sprightly,
    Waking in the dawn of the morning,
    In the evening will be a pitiful frivolity,
    Sleeping in the cold night’s arms.
    Pedro, Calderón De La Barca (1600–1681)
