Famous quotes containing the words program and/or committee:
“George Shears ... was hanged in a barn near the store. The rope was thrown over a beam, and he was asked to walk up a ladder to save the trouble of preparing a drop for him. Gentlemen, he said, I am not used to this business. Shall I jump off or slide off? He was told to jump.”
—For the State of Montana, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“The small creatures chirp thinly through the dust, through the night.
O mother
What shall I cry?
We demand a committee, a representative committee, a committee of investigation
RESIGN RESIGN RESIGN”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
