Belgian Road Race

Famous quotes containing the words belgian, road and/or race:

    This fat pistache of Belgian grapes exceeds
    The total gala of auburn aureoles.
    Cochon! Master, the grapes are here and now.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    The road became a channel running flocks
    Of glossy birds like ripples over rocks.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    ...America has enjoyed the doubtful blessing of a single-track mind. We are able to accommodate, at a time, only one national hero; and we demand that that hero shall be uniform and invincible. As a literate people we are preoccupied, neither with the race nor the individual, but with the type. Yesterday, we romanticized the “tough guy;” today, we are romanticizing the underprivileged, tough or tender; tomorrow, we shall begin to romanticize the pure primitive.
    Ellen Glasgow (1873–1945)
