Famous quotes containing the words list, people and/or georgia:
“We saw the machinery where murderers are now executed. Seven have been executed. The plan is better than the old one. It is quietly done. Only a few, at the most about thirty or forty, can witness [an execution]. It excites nobody outside of the list permitted to attend. I think the time for capital punishment has passed. I would abolish it. But while it lasts this is the best mode.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (18221893)
“Things happen to us, all the time. It was like that for a century, and it is again. Its not like here: People always do things, because you are born with it; you are brought up in this spirit, the active approach to life: Stand up and go. We were not. We were always passive in our lives.”
—Natasha Dudinska (b. c. 1967)
“Georgia, Georgia, no peace I find, just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind.”
—Stuart Gorrell (d. 1963)
