Famous quotes containing the words olson and/or controversy:

    But that which matters, that which insists, that which will last,
    that! o my people, where shall you find it, how, where, where shall
    you listen
    when all is become billboards, when, all, even silence, is
    spray-gunned?
    —Charles Olson (1910–1970)

    Ours was a highly activist administration, with a lot of controversy involved ... but I’m not sure that it would be inconsistent with my own political nature to do it differently if I had it to do all over again.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
