Famous quotes containing the words oklahoma and/or seat:

    I know only one person who ever crossed the ocean without feeling it, either spiritually or physically.... he went from Oklahoma to France and back again ... without ever getting off dry land. He remembers several places I remember too, and several French words, but he says firmly, “We must of went different ways. I don’t rightly recollect no water, ever.”
    M.F.K. Fisher (1908–1992)

    They have thrown away her electric toothbrush, someone else slips
    The key into the lock of her safety-deposit box
    At the Crocker-Anglo Bank; her seat at the cricket matches
    Is warmed by buttocks less delectable than hers.
    Randall Jarrell (1914–1965)
