Famous quotes containing the words bill and/or murray:

    The measure discriminates definitely against products which make up what has been universally considered a program of safe farming. The bill upholds as ideals of American farming the men who grow cotton, corn, rice, swine, tobacco, or wheat and nothing else. These are to be given special favors at the expense of the farmer who has toiled for years to build up a constructive farming enterprise to include a variety of crops and livestock.
    Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)

    Strung out and spotty, you wriggle and sigh
    and kiss all the fellows and make them all die.
    —Les Murray (b. 1938)
