Famous quotes containing the words cripple and/or creek:

    “How comes it that a cripple does not offend us, but a fool does? Because a cripple recognizes that we walk straight, whereas a fool declares that it is we who are silly; if it were not so, we should feel pity and not anger.”
    —Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    “The only law was that enforced by the Creek Lighthorsemen and the U.S. deputy marshals who paid rare and brief visits; or the “two volumes of common law” that every man carried strapped to his thighs.”
    —State of Oklahoma, U.S. relief program (1935-1943)
