Amor Quote by Christopher Moore
““la Ruta de la Seda, que no estaba hecha de seda y que, en realidad, no era sino un sendero estrecho que se abría paso a través de un paisaje desértico, inhóspito y elevado que corresponde a lo que hoy es Siria, y se dirigía a un paisaje desértico, inhóspito y bajo que corresponde a lo que hoy es Irak.””
About This Quote
The Silk Road was not a single silk‑filled highway but a narrow, harsh desert path linking present Syria and Iraq.
