Mounting Bd Mark

Famous quotes containing the words mounting and/or mark:

    “Grim-visaged War hath smoothed his wrinkled front;
    And now, instead of mounting barbed steeds
    To fright the souls of fearful adversaries,
    He capers nimbly in a lady’s chamber
    To the lascivious pleasing of a lute.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “The things that were coming to be talked about
    Have come and gone and are still remembered
    As being recent. There is a grain of curiosity
    At the base of some new thing, that unrolls
    Its question mark like a new wave on the shore.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)
