Famous quotes containing the words temple and/or presidents:

    “I stopped believing in Santa Claus when I was six. Mother took me to see him in a department store and he asked for my autograph.”
    —Shirley Temple Black (b. 1928)

    “A president, however, must stand somewhat apart, as all great presidents have known instinctively. Then the language which has the power to survive its own utterance is the most likely to move those to whom it is immediately spoken.”
    —J.R. Pole (b. 1922)
