Famous quotes containing the words rich and/or countries:

“I stand on top
of our back steps and breathe the rich air—
a mother skunk with her column of kittens swills the garbage pail.
She jabs her wedge-head in a cup
of sour cream, drops her ostrich tail,
and will not scare.”
—Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

“In countries where associations are free, secret societies are unknown. In America there are factions, but no conspiracies.”
