Pike in all parts, green tigering the gold.
Killers from the egg: the malevolent aged grin.

“The measure discriminates definitely against products which make up what has been universally considered a program of safe farming. The bill upholds as ideals of American farming the men who grow cotton, corn, rice, swine, tobacco, or wheat and nothing else. These are to be given special favors at the expense of the farmer who has toiled for years to build up a constructive farming enterprise to include a variety of crops and livestock.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
“Every one rushes elsewhere and into the future, because no one wants to face one’s own inner self.”
