Special Weight

Famous quotes containing the words special and/or weight:

    When, in some obscure country town, the farmers come together to a special town meeting, to express their opinion on some subject which is vexing to the land, that, I think, is the true Congress, and the most respectable one that is ever assembled in the United States.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    as his weight wilts
    and he is on a porch
    that won’t hold my arms,
    or the legs of the race run
    forwards, or the film
    played backwards on his grandson’s eyes.
    Michael S. Harper (b. 1938)
