Latin Letter

Famous quotes containing the words latin and/or letter:

“Americans living in Latin American countries are often more snobbish than the Latins themselves. The typical American has quite a bit of money by Latin American standards, and he rarely sees a countryman who doesn’t. An American businessman who would think nothing of being seen in a sport shirt on the streets of his home town will be shocked and offended at a suggestion that he appear in Rio de Janeiro, for instance, in anything but a coat and tie.”
—Hunter S. Thompson (b. 1939)

“This is my letter to the World
That never wrote to Me—
The simple News that Nature told—
With tender Majesty.”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
