Tulane Beat

Famous quotes containing the words tulane and/or beat:

    1946: I go to graduate school at Tulane in order to get distance from a “possessive” mother. I see a lot of a red-haired girl named Maude-Ellen. My mother asks one day: “Does Maude-Ellen have warts? Every girl I’ve known named Maude-Ellen has had warts.” Right: Maude-Ellen had warts.

    They burned with fierce love always to come near,
    But honor beat them back and kept them clear.
