Straight Column

Famous quotes containing the words straight and/or column:

    “when the moment comes
    we’ll talk turkey,
    we’ll shoot words straight from the hip,
    we’ll play it as it lays.
    Yes,
    when death comes with its hood
    we won’t be polite.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Sleep sweetly in your humble graves,
    Sleep, martyrs of a fallen cause;
    Though yet no marble column craves
    The pilgrim here to pause.”
