Famous quotes containing the words hall and/or vote:

    “Generation on generation, your neck rubbed the windowsill
    of the stall, smoothing the wood as the sea smooths glass.”
    —Donald Hall (b. 1928)

    “While I shall not vote for the prohibition amendment, I would like to see a good, wholesome expression of temperance sentiment.... Personally I do not resort to force—not even the force of law—to advance moral reforms. I prefer education, argument, persuasion, and above all the influence of example—of fashion.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
