Dragon Boat Sport

Famous quotes containing the words dragon, boat and/or sport:

    Opinion is not worth a rush;
    In this altar-piece the knight,
    Who grips his long spear so to push
    That dragon through the fading light,
    Loved the lady; and it’s plain
    The half-dead dragon was her thought....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    But now, our boat climbs hesitates drops
    climbs hesitates crawls back
    climbs hesitates
    O be swift
    we have always known you wanted us.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    I wish glib and indiscriminate critics of industrialists had some conception of the problems that have to be met by factory management.... General condemnation of employers is a favorite indoor sport of the uninformed intelligentsia who assume the role of lance- bearers for labor.
    Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
