Famous quotes containing the word spanish:

“It’s like a jumble of huts in a jungle somewhere. I don’t understand how you can live there. It’s really, completely dead. Walk along the street, there’s nothing moving.

—Truman Capote (1924–1984)

“They are a curious mixture of Spanish tradition, American imitation, and insular limitation. This explains why they never catch on to themselves.”

—Oliver Goldsmith (1728–1774)
