Lowest Distance

Famous quotes containing the words lowest and/or distance:

    When worse may yet befall, there’s room for prayer,
    But when our fortune’s at its lowest ebb,
    We trample fear beneath our feet, and live
    Without a fear of evil yet to come.
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    1946: I go to graduate school at Tulane in order to get distance from a “possessive” mother. I see a lot of a red-haired girl named Maude-Ellen. My mother asks one day: “Does Maude-Ellen have warts? Every girl I’ve known named Maude-Ellen has had warts.” Right: Maude-Ellen had warts.
    Bill Bouke (20th century)
