Quotes

"Don’t book your trip without a valid passport. Often people plan every part of their holiday and forget one of the most important things – their passport. They then apply at the last minute, running the risk of missing the holiday – or paying up to £55 more for a counter service."
...at Buffalo the State University of New York, co-chair of the workshop organization committee, nearly half of U S adults have periodontitis. "Therefore, it is imperative that patients be made aware of their increased risk of systemic diseases" he said
...On taxi rides to and from the Prado (half-hour tutorials), I asked drivers: " Ha visitado Londres? ", as if conducting a survey, and invited incomprehensible torrents of Spanish in response. But making the human connection felt great – even if my obsession with asking people which cities they had visited wore thin. At the Prado's cafe, I unveiled one of my more complicated sentences: " Quisiera pagar con tarjeta de credito por favor " (I would like to pay with a credit card, please)...
...who founded Spain's huge Telepizza restaurant chain and runs a large Pura Raza Espanola breeding operation in Segovia, about an hour from Madrid. "You have the breeder who throws in the towel, and the breeder diminishing the amount he is breeding. Horses are either being sold at a very low price or going to the butcher. We don't know how many people are digging holes in the ground and putting their horses there."
