Famous quotes containing the words sue and/or ryder:

    Apart, we think we wish ourselves together,
    Yet sue for solitude upon our meetings....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    The despot’s heel is on thy shore,
    Maryland!
    His torch is at thy temple door,
    Maryland!
    Avenge the patriotic gore
    That flecked the streets of Baltimore,
    And be the battle-queen of yore,
    Maryland! my Maryland!
    —James Ryder Randall (1839–1908)
