Famous quotes containing the words fourth, avenue and/or line:

    “All night I’ve held your hand,
    as if you had
    a fourth time faced the kingdom of the mad—
    its hackneyed speech, its homicidal eye—
    and dragged me home alive. . . .”
    —Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

    “Extemporaneous speaking should be practised and cultivated. It is the lawyer’s avenue to the public.... And yet there is not a more fatal error to young lawyers than relying too much on speechmaking. If any one, upon his rare powers of speaking, shall claim an exemption from the drudgery of the law, his case is a failure in advance.”
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    “What, will the line stretch out to the crack of doom?”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
