    The Constitution of the United States is not a mere lawyers’ document. It is a vehicle of life, and its spirit is always the spirit of the age. Its prescriptions are clear and we know what they are ... but life is always your last and most authoritative critic.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

    We will have to stay in this house until 8 o’clock in the morning. But we have some party favors for you in these little coffins.
    Robb White, and William Castle. Frederick Loren (Vincent Price)
