Famous quotes containing the words lincoln and/or museum:

    I claim not to have controlled events, but confess plainly that events have controlled me.
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    I have no connections here; only gusty collisions,
    rootless seedlings forced into bloom, that collapse.
    ...
    I am the Visiting Poet: a real unicorn,
    a wind-up plush dodo, a wax museum of the Movement.
    People want to push the buttons and see me glow.
    Marge Piercy (b. 1936)
