Famous quotes containing the word stand:

    “Christ: I dislike him very much; still I can stand him. What I cannot stand is the wretched band of people whose profession is to hoodwink us about him.”
    —Samuel Butler (1835–1902)

    “I don’t know whither we are drifting, but I do know where every real thinking patriot will stand in the end, and that’s by the Constitution.”
    —William Howard Taft (1857–1930)

    “I stand on top
    of our back steps and breathe the rich air—
    a mother skunk with her column of kittens swills the garbage pail.
    She jabs her wedge-head in a cup
    of sour cream, drops her ostrich tail,
    and will not scare.”
    —Robert Lowell (1917–1977)
