Famous quotes containing the words held and/or office:
“Then moved my Fingers off
As cautiously as Glass
And held my ears, and like a Thief
Fled gasping from the House—”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
“Just across the Green from the post office is the county jail, seldom occupied except by some backwoodsman who has been intemperate; the courthouse is under the same roof. The dog warden usually basks in the sunlight near the harness store or the post office, his golden badge polished bright.”
—Administration for the State of Con, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
