Riders Sit

Famous quotes containing the words riders and/or sit:

    Chinese proverb.

    As I sit looking out of a window of the building
    I wish I did not have to write the instructional manual on the uses
    of a new metal.
    I look down into the street and see people, each walking with an
    inner peace,
    And envy them—they are so far away from me!
    Not one of them has to worry about getting out this manual on
    schedule
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
