Famous quotes containing the word bill:

    I am succeeding very well so far with my legging, but it is a very mean business for a man that has been well brought up to engage in. It is the only way to get a bill from Cincinnati through, so it must be done.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
