Famous quotes containing the words rode and/or bay:

    But she rode it out,
    That old rose-house,
    She hove into the teeth of it,
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    Shall we now
    Contaminate our fingers with base bribes,
    And sell the mighty space of our large honors
    For so much trash as may be grasped thus?
    I had rather be a dog and bay the moon
    Than such a Roman.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
