Birmingham Hall Green

Famous quotes containing the words hall and/or green:

    In football they measure forty-yard sprints. Nobody runs forty yards in basketball. Maybe you run the ninety-four feet of the court; then you stop, not on a dime, but on Miss Liberty’s torch. In football you run over somebody’s face.
    —Donald Hall (b. 1928)

    There is something I have forgotten, some precious thing.
    I shall be seeking ornaments of ivory,
    I shall be dying for a jungle fruit.

    You do not hear, Bethesda.
    O still green water in a stagnant pool!
    Arna Bontemps (1902–1973)
