Famous quotes containing the words stallion and/or lines:

    “The stallion Eternity
    Mounted the mare of Time,
    ‘Gat the foal of the world.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Indeed, I believe that in the future, when we shall have seized again, as we will seize if we are true to ourselves, our own fair part of commerce upon the sea, and when we shall have again our appropriate share of South American trade, that these railroads from St. Louis, touching deep harbors on the gulf, and communicating there with lines of steamships, shall touch the ports of South America and bring their tribute to you.
    Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)
