Famous quotes containing the words world, bank and/or policy:

    You see, in a world where elephants are pursued by flying men, people are just naturally going to want to get high.
    Judith Rascoe, U.S. screenwriter, Robert Stone (b. 1939)

    O Gold! I still prefer thee unto paper,
    Which makes bank credit like a bark of vapour.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    We are apt to say that a foreign policy is successful only when the country, or at any rate the governing class, is united behind it. In reality, every line of policy is repudiated by a section, often by an influential section, of the country concerned. A foreign minister who waited until everyone agreed with him would have no foreign policy at all.
    —A.J.P. (Alan John Percivale)
