Novice State Championship

Famous quotes containing the words novice and/or state:

    A novice was sitting on a cornice
    High over the city. Angels
    Combined their prayers with those
    Of the police, begging her to come off it.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    He is a poor man and has got behind-hand and when that’s the case, there is no staying in the settlements; for those varmints, the sheriffs and constables, are worse than the Indians, because you can kill Indians and you dare not kill the sheriffs.
    —For the State of West Virginia, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
