Small Relief

Famous quotes containing the words small and/or relief:

    I can hear, underground, that sucking and sobbing,
    In my veins, in my bones I feel it,—
    The small waters seeping upward,
    The tight grains parting at last.
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    In the sandhill country, where the going was tougher, leaner, and lonelier, and the folklore tougher, fatter, and more plentiful, history may be retraced in the amusements of the people.
    —For the State of Nebraska, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
