White Clam Pie

Famous quotes containing the words white, clam and/or pie:

    I’m a prodigal son. The black sheep of a white flock. I shall die on the gallows.
    William A. Drake (1900–1965)

    Over the low, barnacled, elephant-colored rocks,
    Come the first tide-ripples, moving, almost without sound, toward
    me,
    Running along the narrow furrows of the shore, the rows of dead clam shells;
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    It is the place where all the aspirations of the Western World meet to form one vast master aspiration, as powerful as the suction of a steam dredge. It is the icing on the pie called Christian civilization.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
