Famous quotes containing the words buck and/or taylor:

    As a great buck it powerfully appeared,
    Pushing the crumpled water up ahead,
    And landed pouring like a waterfall,
    And stumbled through the rocks with horny tread,
    And forced the underbrush—and that was all.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    To tangle Adams race
    In’s stratagems
    —Edward Taylor (1645–1729)
