Famous quotes containing the words lady, charlotte and/or bury:

    The first lady is, and always has been, an unpaid public servant elected by one person, her husband.
    Lady Bird Johnson (b. 1912)

    In soliciting donations from his flock, a preacher may promise eternal life in a celestial city whose streets are paved with gold, and that’s none of the law’s business. But if he promises an annual free stay in a luxury hotel on Earth, he’d better have the rooms available.
    —Unknown. Charlotte Observer (October 6, 1989)

    But even in a telephone booth
    evil can seep out of the receiver
    and we must cover it with a mattress,
    and then tear it from its roots
    and bury it,
    bury it.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
