Famous quotes containing the words sentence and/or imposed:
“Judge Ginsburg’s selection should be a model—chosen on merit and not ideology, despite some naysaying, with little advance publicity. Her treatment could begin to overturn a terrible precedent: that is, that the most terrifying sentence among the accomplished in America has become, “Honey—the White House is on the phone.””
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“‘Twas Age imposed on poems
Their gather-roses burden
To warn against the danger
That overtakes lovers
From being overflooded
With happiness should have it
And yet not know they have it.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
