Painted Wood

Famous quotes containing the words painted and/or wood:

    Come gather round me players all:
    Come praise Nineteen-Sixteen,
    Those from the pit and gallery
    Or from the painted scene
    That fought in the Post Office
    Or round the City Hall....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    All who wish to hand down to their children that happy republican system bequeathed to them by their revolutionary fathers, must now take their stand against this consolidating, corrupting money power, and put it down, or their children will become hewers of wood and drawers of water to this aristocratic ragocracy.
    Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
