Relief Fragments

Famous quotes containing the words relief and/or fragments:

    If, as they say, God spanked the town
    For being over-frisky,
    Why did He burn all the churches down
    And spare Hotaling’s Whiskey?
    —For the State of California, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    Break a vase, and the love that reassembles the fragments is stronger than that love which took its symmetry for granted when it was whole.
    Derek Walcott (b. 1930)
