Famous quotes containing the words state and/or funeral:
“The judiciary has fallen to a very low state in this country. I think your part of the country has suffered especially. The federal judges of the South are a disgrace to any country, and Ill be damned if I put any man on the bench of whose character and ability there is the least doubt.”

“I asked if I got sick and died, would you
With my black funeral go walking too,
If youd stand close to hear them talk or pray
While Im let down in that steep bank of clay.”
—J.M. (John Millington)
