Famous quotes containing the words world and/or cup:

    Clothes make the poor invisible.... America has the best-dressed poverty the world has ever known.
    Michael Harrington (1928–1989)

    In poorer lands
    No one touches the water of life.
    It has no taste
    And though it refreshes absolutely
    It is a cup that must also pass
    Until everybody
    Gets some advantage....
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
