Gonzalo de Salazar/temporary Government in The Absence of Cort%C3%A9s

Famous quotes containing the words temporary, government and/or absence:

    Good parties create a temporary youthfulness.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    There are obvious places in which government can narrow the chasm between haves and have-nots. One is the public schools, which have been seen as the great leveler, the authentic melting pot. That, today, is nonsense. In his scathing study of the nation’s public school system entitled “Savage Inequalities,” Jonathan Kozol made manifest the truth: that we have a system that discriminates against the poor in everything from class size to curriculum.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

    He who rejoices even at the stake triumphs not over pain but over the absence of pain where he had anticipated feeling it. A parable.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
