Concurrently, he founded the city of Sand Springs, Oklahoma to support the home.
Famous quotes containing the word page:
“I drink the five o’clock martinis
and poke at this dry page like a rough
goat. Fool! I fumble my lost childhood
for a mother and lounge in sad stuff
with love to catch and catch as catch can.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
