Meal Offering

Famous quotes containing the words meal and/or offering:

    Bid a strong ghost stand at the head
    That my Michael may sleep sound,
    Nor cry, not turn in the bed
    Till his morning meal come round;
    And may departing twilight keep
    All dread afar till morning’s back....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Instead of offering the Indians a chance to surrender, and to be taken peaceably, General Connor issued a very cruel order to his men—’Take no prisoners, fight to the death; nits breed lice.’
    State of Utah, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
