Famous quotes containing the words friday and/or march:

    This is the only “wet” community in a wide area, and is the rendezvous of cow hands seeking to break the monotony of chuck wagon food and range life. Friday night is the “big time” for local cowboys, and consequently the calaboose is called the “Friday night jail.”
    —Administration in the State of Texa, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    Knowledge, Virtue, Power are the victories of man over his necessities, his march to the dominion of the world.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
