Famous quotes containing the word cover:
“There is nothing more poetic and terrible than the skyscrapers battle with the heavens that cover them. Snow, rain, and mist highlight, drench, or conceal the vast towers, but those towers, hostile to mystery and blind to any sort of play, shear off the rains tresses and shine their three thousand swords through the soft swan of the fog.”
—Federico García Lorca (18981936)
“If I use the media, even with tricks, to publicise a black youth being shot in the back in Teaneck, New Jersey ... then I should be praised for it, and its more of a comment on them than me that it would take tricks to make them cover the loss of life.”
—Al, Rev. Sharpton (b. 1954)
“I wouldnt pray just for a old man thats dead because hes all right. If I was to pray, Id pray for the folks thats alive and dont know which way to turn. Grampa here, he aint got no more trouble like that. Hes got his job all cut out for him. So cover him up and let him get to it.”
—Nunnally Johnson (18971977)
