Point Lock

Famous quotes containing the words point and/or lock:

“One point in my public life: I did all I could for the reform of the civil service, for the building up of the South, for a sound currency, etc., etc., but I never forgot my party.... I knew that all good measures would suffer if my Administration was followed by the defeat of my party. Result, a great victory in 1880. Executive and legislature both completely Republican.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

“then take off your flesh,
unpick the lock of your bones.
In other words
take off the wall
that separates you from God.”
