Weeks Paid

Famous quotes containing the words weeks and/or paid:

    “The modern American tourist now fills his experience with pseudo-events. He has come to expect both more strangeness and more familiarity than the world naturally offers.

    —Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)

    ““Eh Bien you like this sacred pig of a country?” asked Marco.
    “Why not? I like it anywhere. It’s all the same, in France you are paid badly and live well; here you are paid well and live badly.””
    —John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
