Pale Riders

Famous quotes containing the words pale and/or riders:

    “Great is the art,
    Great be the manners, of the bard.
    He shall not his brain encumber
    With the coil of rhythm and number;
    But, leaving rule and pale forethought,
    He shall aye climb
    For his rhyme.
    “Pass in, pass in,” the angels say,”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “To see the earth as we now see it, small and beautiful in that eternal silence where it floats, is to see ourselves as riders on the earth together, brothers on that bright loveliness in the unending night—brothers who see now they are truly brothers.”
