Famous quotes containing the words broadcasts and/or voting:
“Alexander Woollcott broadcasts the story of the wife who returned a dog to the Seeing Eye with this note attached: I am sending the dog back. My husband used to depend on me. Now he is independent, and I never know where he is.”
—For the State of New Jersey, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“Common sense should tell us that reading is the ultimate weapondestroying ignorance, poverty and despair before they can destroy us. A nation that doesnt read much doesnt know much. And a nation that doesnt know much is more likely to make poor choices in the home, the marketplace, the jury box and the voting booth...The challenge, therefore, is to convince future generations of children that carrying a book is more rewarding than carrying guns.”
—Jim Trelease (20th century)
