Famous quotes containing the words washington, park and/or baseball:

    I may as well say, what all men feel, that whilst our every amiable and very innocent representatives and senators at Washington are accomplished lawyers and merchants, and every eloquent at dinners and at caucuses, there is a disastrous want of men in New England.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Therefore awake! make haste, I say,
    And let us, without staying,
    All in our gowns of green so gay
    Into the Park a-maying!
    Unknown. Sister, Awake! (L. 9–12)

    I’ve gradually risen from lower-class background to lower-class foreground.
