Riding

Famous quotes containing the word riding:

“Sometimes a musical phrase would perfectly sum up
The mood of a moment. One of those lovelorn sonatas
For wind instruments was riding past on a solemn white horse.
Everybody wondered who the new arrival was.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)

In riding to and from his wife;
A man who shaves and takes a train,
And then rides back to shave again.”

Death-light of Africa!
Don John of Austria
Is riding to the sea.”
