Famous quotes containing the words death, penalty and/or act:

    “Time is here and you’ll go his way.

    cored like an apple.”

    “It is odd that the NCAA would place a school on probation for driving an athlete to class, or providing a loan, but would have no penalty for a school that violates Title IX, a federal law.”
    —Cardiss L. Collins (b. 1931)

    “Pretension may sit still, but cannot act. Pretension never feigned an act of real greatness. Pretension never wrote an Iliad, nor drove back Xerxes, nor christianized the world, nor abolished slavery.”
