Famous quotes containing the words murder and/or peterson:

    Arrive in the afternoon, the late light slanting
    In diluted gold bars across the boulevard brag
    Of proud, seamed faces with mercy and murder hinting
    here, there, interrupting, all deep and debonair,
    The pink paint on the innocence of fear;
    Walk in a gingerly manner up the hall.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    Chores begin when your child can pick it up, put it away, fold it, sort it, or carry it out the door.
    —Jean Ross Peterson (20th century)
