Famous quotes containing the words light and/or horse:
“Dark is my day whiles her fair light I miss,
And dead my life, that wants such lively bliss.”
—Edmund Spenser (1552?–1599)
“The hardiest skeptic who has seen a horse broken, a pointer trained, or has visited a menagerie or the exhibition of the Industrious Fleas, will not deny the validity of education. “A boy,” says Plato, “is the most vicious of all beasts;” and in the same spirit the old English poet Gascoigne says, “A boy is better unborn than untaught.””
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
