Famous quotes containing the words pepsi and/or presented:
“There are two kinds of artists left: those who endorse Pepsi and those who simply won’t.”
—Annie Lennox (b. 1954)
“Our young people are diseased with the theological problems of original sin, origin of evil, predestination, and the like. These never presented a practical difficulty to any man,—never darkened across any man’s road, who did not go out of his way to seek them. These are the soul’s mumps, and measles, and whooping- coughs, and those who have not caught them cannot describe their health or prescribe a cure. A simple mind will not know these enemies.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
