Famous quotes containing the words crocker, led and/or campbell:

    For some people, their idea of getting tough is longer suspended sentences.
    Jeremy Larner, U.S. screenwriter. Senator Crocker Jarman (Don Porter)

    The Cairo conference ... is about a complicated web of education and employment, consumption and poverty, development and health care. It is also about whether governments will follow where women have so clearly led them, toward safe, simple and reliable choices in family planning. While Cairo crackles with conflict, in the homes of the world the orthodoxies have been duly heard, and roundly ignored.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

    The frost stings sweetly with a burning kiss
    As intimate as love, as cold as death:
    —Roy Campbell (1902–1957)
