Barons of the Beltway Quotes

“If you’ve never stayed at a hostel in Europe, consider yourself lucky. The sheets’ stains look like a topographical map, and the mattresses feel like they’ve been through a Sharknado. You feel like you need a shower after you take a shower. And the wannabe hippies sleeping in the Che and anarchist shirts on the half-dozen bunks around you smell and snore and make you yearn for the relative opulence of an American truck stop.”
― Michelle Fields, Barons of the Beltway: Inside the Princely World of Our Washington Elite--and How to Overthrow Them
