Pitch Circles

Famous quotes containing the words pitch and/or circles:

“I can’t earn my own living. I could never make anything turn into money. It’s like making fires. A careful assortment of paper, shavings, faggots and kindling nicely tipped with pitch will never light for me. I have never been present when a cigarette butt, extinct, thrown into a damp and isolated spot, started a conflagration in the California woods.”
—Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)

“There are some circles in America where it seems to be more socially acceptable to carry a hand-gun than a packet of cigarettes.”
—Katharine Whitehorn (b. 1926)
