Shot Line

Famous quotes containing the words shot and/or line:

    “He shakes the dust from off his feet
    And shambles down the dirty street
    The last man in the town, they said,
    Who’d shot a hundred Yankees dead.”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    “The real dividing line between early childhood and middle childhood is not between the fifth year and the sixth year—it is more nearly when children are about seven or eight, moving on toward nine. Building the barrier at six has no psychological basis. It has come about only from the historic-economic-political fact that the age of six is when we provide schools for all.”
    —James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)
