Famous quotes containing the words relief and/or column:
“Golf is a fine relief from the tensions of office, but we are a little tired of holding the bag.”

“I stand on top
of our back steps and breathe the rich air—
a mother skunk with her column of kittens swills the garbage pail.
She jabs her wedge-head in a cup
of sour cream, drops her ostrich tail,
and will not scare.”
