Famous quotes containing the words key, conference and/or leaders:

    “‘The key is in the window, the key is in the sunlight at the
    window—I have the key—Get married Allen don’t take drugs—the key is in the bars, in the sunlight in the window.
    Love,
    your mother’”
    —Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)

    “For 350 years we have been taught that reading maketh a full man, conference a ready man and writing an exact man. Football’s place is to add a patina of character, a deference to the rules and a respect for authority.”
    —Walter Wellesley (Red)

    “Signal smokes, war drums, feathered bonnets against the western sky. New messiahs, young leaders are ready to hurl the finest light cavalry in the world against Fort Stark. In the Kiowa village, the beat of drums echoes in the pulsebeat of the young braves. Fighters under a common banner, old quarrels forgotten, Comanche rides with Arapaho, Apache with Cheyenne. All chant of war. War to drive the white man forever from the red man’s hunting ground.”
    —Frank S. Nugent (1908–1965)
