Pale Horse

Famous quotes containing the words pale and/or horse:

    Great is the art,
    Great be the manners, of the bard.

    With the coil of rhythm and number;
    But, leaving rule and pale forethought,
    He shall aye climb
    For his rhyme.
    “Pass in, pass in,” the angels say,
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    A fly, Sir, may sting a stately horse and make him wince; but one is but an insect, and the other is a horse still.
