Famous quotes containing the words heavy, duty and/or bus:
“Two heavy trestles, and a board
Where Satos gift, a changeless sword,
By pen and paper lies,
That it may moralise
My days out of their aimlessness.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“Where there are no rights, there are no duties. To tell the truth is thus a duty; but it is a duty only in respect to one who has a right to the truth.”
—Henri Benjamin Constant De Rebecque (17671830)
“It seemed a long way from 143rd Street. Shaking hands with the Queen of England was a long way from being forced to sit in the colored section of the bus going into downtown Wilmington, North Carolina. Dancing with the Duke of Devonshire was a long way from not being allowed to bowl in Jefferson City, Missouri, because the white customers complained about it.”
—Althea Gibson (b. 1927)
