Famous quotes containing the words president and/or palmer:

    “I can’t be President since I am a naturalized citizen, but I figured everything else was fair game.”
    —Arati Prabhakar (b. c. 1959)

    “It is the business of thought to define things, to find the boundaries; thought, indeed, is a ceaseless process of definition. It is the business of Art to give things shape. Anyone who takes no delight in the firm outline of an object, or in its essential character, has no artistic sense.... He cannot even be nourished by Art. Like Ephraim, he feeds upon the East wind, which has no boundaries.”
    —Vance Palmer (1885–1959)
