Year Term

Famous quotes containing the words year and/or term:

    Even an attorney of moderate talent can postpone doomsday year after year, for the system of appeals that pervades American jurisprudence amounts to a legalistic wheel of fortune, a game of chance, somewhat fixed in the favor of the criminal, that the participants play interminably.
    Truman Capote (1924–1984)

    Dead drunk
    is the term I think of,
    insensible,
    neither cool nor warm,
    without a head or a foot.
    To be drunk is to be intimate with a fool.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
