Hard Shoulder Running

Famous quotes containing the words hard, shoulder and/or running:

    It is hard going to the door
    cut so small in the wall where
    the vision which echoes loneliness
    brings a scent of wild flowers in the wood.

    America I’m putting my queer shoulder to the wheel.
    Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)

    Even in harmonious families there is this double life: the group life, which is the one we can observe in our neighbour’s household, and, underneath, another—secret and passionate and intense—which is the real life that stamps the faces and gives character to the voices of our friends. Always in his mind each member of these social units is escaping, running away, trying to break the net which circumstances and his own affections have woven about him.
    Willa Cather (1873–1947)
