What is lowell?

Famous quotes containing the word lowell:

    I was a fire-breathing Catholic C.O.,
    and made my manic statement,
    telling off the state and president, and then
    sat waiting sentence in the bull pen
    beside a Negro boy with curlicues
    of marijuana in his hair.

    Babel of Boston where our money talks

    Fighting with the Duke in Flanders,
    In a pattern called a war.
