Famous quotes containing the words boards and/or offices:
“Water, water, everywhere,
And all the boards did shrink;
Water, water, everywhere
Nor any drop to drink.”
—Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
“The city of Washington is in some respects self-contained, and it is easy there to forget what the rest of the United States is thinking about. I count it a fortunate circumstance that almost all the windows of the White House and its offices open upon unoccupied spaces that stretch to the banks of the Potomac ... and that as I sit there I can constantly forget Washington and remember the United States.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
