Word List

Famous quotes containing the words word and/or list:

“One word is too often profaned
For me to profane it,
One feeling too falsely disdained
For thee to disdain it;”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

“We saw the machinery where murderers are now executed. Seven have been executed. The plan is better than the old one. It is quietly done. Only a few, at the most about thirty or forty, can witness [an execution]. It excites nobody outside of the list permitted to attend. I think the time for capital punishment has passed. I would abolish it. But while it lasts this is the best mode.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
