Sitting Vice President

Famous quotes containing the words sitting, vice and/or president:

    No prayers or incense rose up in those hours
    Which grew to be years, and every day came mute
    Ghosts from the ovens, sitting through crisp air,
    And settled upon his eyes in a black soot.
    Anthony Hecht (b. 1923)

    I hate ingratitude more in a man
    Than lying, vainness, babbling, drunkenness,
    Or any taint of vice whose strong corruption
    Inhabits our frail blood.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I shouldn’t want you to be surprised, or to draw any particular inference from my making speeches, or not making speeches, out there. I don’t recall any candidate for President that ever injured himself very much by not talking.
    Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
