Express/sports

Famous quotes containing the words express and/or sports:

“My opinion is that a poet should express the emotion of all the ages and the thought of his own.”
—Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

“Sweet smiling village, loveliest of the lawn,
Thy sports are fled and all thy charms withdrawn;
Amidst thy bowers the tyrant’s hand is seen,
And desolation saddens all thy green;
One only master grasps the whole domain,
And half a tillage stints thy smiling plain;”
—Oliver Goldsmith (1730?–1774)
