Famous quotes containing the words july and/or floods:

    ...there was the annual Fourth of July picketing at Independence Hall in Philadelphia. ...I thought it was ridiculous to have to go there in a skirt. But I did it anyway because it was something that might possibly have an effect. I remember walking around in my little white blouse and skirt and tourists standing there eating their ice cream cones and watching us like the zoo had opened.
    Martha Shelley, U.S. author and social activist. As quoted in Making History, part 3, by Eric Marcus (1992)

    The rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on rock.
    Bible: New Testament, Matthew 7:25.
