Famous quotes containing the words swing, state and/or tour:

Where no storms come,
Where the green swell is in the havens dumb,
And out of the swing of the sea.”

“Do you know I believe that [William Jennings] Bryan will force his nomination on the Democrats again. I believe he will either do this by advocating Prohibition, or else he will run on a Prohibition platform independent of the Democrats. But you will see that the year before the election he will organize a mammoth lecture tour and will make Prohibition the leading note of every address.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
