Famous quotes containing the words mount and/or frederick:

    I mount the steps and ring the bell, turning
    Wearily, as one would turn to nod good-bye to Rochefoucauld,
    If the street were time and he at the end of the street,
    And I say, “Cousin Harriet, here is the Boston Evening Transcript.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    For should your hands drop white and empty
    All the toys of the world would break.
    —John Frederick Nims (b. 1913)
