Famous quotes containing the words demon, summoning and/or program:
“Oh demon within,

from the public voyeury eyes
of my typewriter keys.”

“So, summoning his master’s debtors one by one, he asked the first, How much do you owe my master?’ He answered, A hundred jugs of olive oil.’ He said to him, Take your bill, sit down quickly, and make it fifty.’”
—Bible: New Testament, Luke 16:5,6.
“The cowboy ... is well on his way to becoming a figure of magnificent proportions. Bowlegged and gaunt, he stands as the apotheosis of manly perfection. Songs, novels, movies, magazines, and operettas have made the least inquiring of us well acquainted with his extraordinary courage, unfailing gallantry, and uncanny skill with gun or lariat. The farmer, meanwhile, sits stolidly on his tractor, bereft of romance and adventure.”
—For the State of Kansas, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
