Paces Ferry Road

Famous quotes containing the words paces, ferry and/or road:

    Ill-weaved ambition, how much art thou shrunk!
    When that this body did contain a spirit,

    But now two paces of the vilest earth
    Is room enough.

    Ferry me across the water,
    Do, boatman, do.”

    I’ll ferry you.”

    O Russia! O my wife! Our long and narrow Road lies clear though distressed.
    Our road with an old Tatar freedom’s arrow Has deeply pierced our breast.
