Pale Horse

Famous quotes containing the words pale horse, pale and/or horse:

    And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death.
    —Bible: New Testament St. John the Divine, in Revelation, 6:8.

    Thus conscience does make cowards of us all,
    And thus the native hue of resolution
    Is sicklied o’er with the pale cast of thought,
    And enterprises of great pith and moment
    With this regard their currents turn awry,
    And lose the name of action.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    When a friend calls to me from the road
    And slows his horse to a meaning walk,
    I don’t stand still and look around
    On all the hills I haven’t hoed....
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
