Famous quotes containing the words beat and/or gait:
“If the pulse of his people shall beat calmly under this experiment, another and another will be tried till the measure of despotism be filled up.”

“I had rather hear a brazen canstick turned,
Or a dry wheel grate on the axle-tree,
And that would set my teeth nothing on edge,
Nothing so much as mincing poetry.
‘Tis like the forced gait of a shuffling nag.”
