Country Driver

Famous quotes containing the words country and/or driver:

“Every country has its own constitution; ours is absolutism moderated by assassination.”

“God help the horse, and the driver too!
And the people and beasts who have never a friend!
For the driver easily might have been you,
And the horse be me by a different end!
And nobody knows how their days will cease!
And the poor, when they’re old, have little of peace!”
