Small Relief

Famous quotes containing the words small and/or relief:

    By the by, who ever knew a man who never read or wrote neither who hadn’t got some small back parlour which he would call a study!
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)

    The menu was stewed liver and rice, fricassee of bones, and shredded dog biscuit. The dinner was greatly appreciated; the guests ate until they could eat no more, and Elisha Dyer’s dachshund so overtaxed its capacities that it fell unconscious by its plate and had to be carried home.
    —For the State of Rhode Island, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
