Famous quotes containing the words jack and/or marshall:

    Sheriff, have you ever watched a friend dying before your eyes and not been able to help? That’s the worst of it. Being helpless. It’s particularly tough when you’re a physician and you know what’s wrong with him, and there isn’t a single solitary thing you or anyone else can do.
    —Robert M. Fresco. Jack Arnold. Prof. Gerald Deemer (Leo G. Carroll)

    The young woman-smell
    Of your poppy body
    Rises to my brain as opium
    —Frank Marshall Davis (b. 1905)
