Patton Slapped

Famous quotes containing the words patton and/or slapped:

“An accent mark, perhaps, instead of a whole western accent—a point of punctuation rather than a uniform twang. That is how it should be worn: as a quiet point of character reference, an apt phrase of sartorial allusion—macho, sotto voce.”
—Phil Patton (b. 1953)

“He slapped his breast to verify his purse
And hugged himself for all his universe.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
