Famous quotes containing the words hotel and/or moscow:
“Consider his life which was valueless
In terms of employment, hotel ledgers, news files.
Consider. One bullet in ten thousand kills a man.
Ask. Was so much expenditure justified
On the death of one so young and so silly
Lying under the olive tree, O world, O death?”
—Stephen Spender (1909–1995)
“Napoleon is a torrent which as yet we are unable to stem. Moscow will be the sponge that will suck him dry.”
