Yard Penalty

Famous quotes containing the words yard and/or penalty:

    For this your mother sweated in the cold,
    For this you bled upon the bitter tree:
    A yard of tinsel ribbon bought and sold;
    A paper wreath; a day at home for me.
    Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)

    That’s the penalty we have to pay for our acts of foolishness—someone else always suffers for them.
    Alfred Sutro (1863–1933)
