Famous quotes containing the words sunk and/or relief:
“Her man falling asleep,
limp from dragging a plow sunk in mud,
the slattern curses the rains,
her pleasures unfinished.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
“When shot, the deer seldom drops immediately, but runs sometimes for hours, the hunter in hot pursuit. This phase, known as ‘deer running,’ develops fleet runners, particularly in deer- jacking expeditions when the law is pursuing the hunters as swiftly as the hunters are pursuing the deer.”
—For the State of Maine, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
