Famous quotes containing the words bridge and/or art:

    I was at work that morning. Someone came riding like mad
    Over the bridge and up the road—Farmer Rouf’s little lad.
    Bareback he rode; he had no hat; he hardly stopped to say,
    “Morgan’s men are coming, Frau, they’re galloping on this way.
    Constance Fenimore Woolson (1840–1894)

    Art thou officer,
    Or art thou base, common, and popular?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
