Gate Road

Famous quotes containing the words gate and/or road:

    A young child is no longer simply a child; he or she is a preschooler, poised at the starting gate in the race of life.
    Neil Kurshan (20th century)

    Dear common flower, that grow’st beside the way,
    Fringing the dusty road with harmless gold,
    First pledge of blithesome May,
    Which children pluck, and, full of pride, uphold,
    Hight-hearted buccaneers, o’erjoyed that they
    An Eldorado in the grass have found,
    Which not the rich earth’s ample round
    May match in wealth—thou art more dear to me
    Than all the prouder summer-blooms may be.
    James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)
