American Race Walking

Famous quotes containing the words american, race and/or walking:

    Anger becomes limiting, restricting. You can’t see through it. While anger is there, look at that, too. But after a while, you have to look at something else.
    Thylias Moss, African American poet. As quoted in the Wall Street Journal (May 12, 1994)

    For do but note a wild and wanton herd
    Or race of youthful and unhandled colts
    Fetching mad bounds, bellowing and neighing loud,
    Which is the hot condition of their blood;
    If they but hear perchance a trumpet sound,
    Or any air of music touch their ears,
    You shall perceive them make a mutual stand,
    Their savage eyes turned to a modest gaze
    By the sweet power of music.
    William Shake{peare (1564–1616)

    And early in the morning he came walking toward them on the sea.
    Bible: New Testament, Matthew 14:25.
