Eurasian Brown

Famous quotes containing the words eurasian and/or brown:

    In economics, we borrowed from the Bourbons; in foreign policy, we drew on themes fashioned by the nomad warriors of the Eurasian steppes. In spiritual matters, we emulated the braying intolerance of our archenemies, the Shi’ite fundamentalists.
    Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)

    in the brown baked features
    The eyes of a familiar compound ghost
    Both intimate and unidentifiable.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
