Ended Straight Draw

Famous quotes containing the words ended, straight and/or draw:

“Many people I know in Los Angeles believe that the Sixties ended abruptly on August 9, 1969, ended at the exact moment when word of the murders on Cielo Drive traveled like brushfire through the community, and in a sense this is true. The tension broke that day. The paranoia was fulfilled.”
—Joan Didion (b. 1935)

“I want people to be sincere; a man of honor shouldn’t speak a single word that doesn’t come straight from his heart.”
—Molière [Jean Baptiste Poquelin] (1622–1673)

“And the shuttle never falters, but to draw an encouraging conclusion
From this would be considerable, too odd. Why not just
Breathe in with the courage of each day, recognizing yourself as one
Who must with difficulty get down from high places?”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
