Independence Boulevard

Famous quotes containing the words independence and/or boulevard:

“The independence of all political and other bother is a happiness.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

“Arrive in the afternoon, the late light slanting
In diluted gold bars across the boulevard brag
Of proud, seamed faces with mercy and murder hinting
here, there, interrupting, all deep and debonair,
The pink paint on the innocence of fear;
Walk in a gingerly manner up the hall.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
