—Aleister Crowley (18751947)

He had a mask like Castlereagh.”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (17921822)

“Rosalynn said, Jimmy, if we could only get Prime Minister Begin and President Sadat up here on this mountain for a few days, I believe they might consider how they could prevent another war between their countries.

—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
