Conventional Grip

Famous quotes containing the words conventional and/or grip:

“My attitude toward punctuation is that it ought to be as conventional as possible. The game of golf would lose a good deal if croquet mallets and billiard cues were allowed on the putting green. You ought to be able to show that you can do it a good deal better than anyone else with the regular tools before you have a license to bring in your own improvements.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

“The grip that swung the ax in Illinois
Was on the pen that set a people free.”
—Edwin Markham (1852–1940)
