Year Rye Whiskey

Famous quotes containing the words year, rye and/or whiskey:

    It’s not that we want the political jobs themselves ... but they seem to be the only language the men understand. We don’t really want these $200 a year jobs. But the average man doesn’t understand working for a cause.
    Jennie Carolyn Van Ness (b. c. 1890–?)

    Poems stirred
    into paper coffee-cups, eaten
    with petals on rye in the
    sun—the cold shadows in back,
    and the traffic grinding the
    borders of spring ...
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    Besides, you start drinking whiskey gambling, it gives you an excuse for losing. That’s something you don’t need, an excuse for losing.
    Sydney Carroll, U.S. screenwriter, and Robert Rossen. Bert Gordon (George C. Scott)
