Famous quotes containing the words salem and/or hanna:

    without luggage or defenses,
    giving up my car keys and my cash,
    keeping only a pack of Salem cigarettes
    the way a child holds on to a toy.
    I signed myself in where a stranger
    puts the inked-in X’s
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Yabba dabba do!
    —William Denby Hanna (b. 1910)
