National Hot Rod

Famous quotes containing the words national, hot and/or rod:

    We are constantly thinking of the great war ... which saved the Union ... but it was a war that did a great deal more than that. It created in this country what had never existed before—a national consciousness. It was not the salvation of the Union, it was the rebirth of the Union.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

    More than I, if truth were told,
    Have stood and sweated hot and cold,
    And through their veins in ice and fire
    Fear contended with desire.
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)

    From pleasure of the bed,
    Dull as a worm,
    His rod and its butting head
    Limp as a worm ...
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
