Famous quotes containing the words top and/or poll:

    “I can’t forget
    How she stood at the top of that long marble stair
    Amazed, and then with a sleepy pirouette
    Went dancing slowly down to the fountain-quieted square;”
    —Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)

    “If Rosa Parks had taken a poll before she sat down in that bus in Montgomery, she’d still be standing.”
    —Mary Frances Berry (b. 1938)
