Carlos Salinas de Gortari/exile and Ra%C3%BAl Salinas Controversies

Famous quotes containing the words carlos and/or exile:

    “we, in
    that instant, lost,

    breathless to be witnesses,
    as if we stood
    ourselves refreshed among
    the shining fauna of that fire.”
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)

    “The exile is a singular, whereas refugees tend to be thought of in the mass. Armenian refugees, Jewish refugees, refugees from Franco Spain. But a political leader or artistic figure is an exile. Thomas Mann yesterday, Theodorakis today. Exile is the noble and dignified term, while a refugee is more hapless.... What is implied in these nuances of social standing is the respect we pay to choice. The exile appears to have made a decision, while the refugee is the very image of helplessness.”
    —Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
