World Relief

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or relief:

    I am a little world made cunningly
    Of elements, and an angelic sprite;
    But black sin hath betrayed to endless night
    My world’s both parts, and Oh! both parts must die.
    John Donne (1572–1631)

    If, as they say, God spanked the town
    For being over-frisky,
    Why did He burn all the churches down
    And spare Hotaling’s Whiskey?
    —For the State of California, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
