Famous quotes containing the words rides and, rides and/or attractions:
“He who rides and keeps the beaten track studies the fences chiefly.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“One who rides a tiger will find it hard to dismount.”
—Chinese proverb.
“The world,—this shadow of the soul, or other me, lies wide around. Its attractions are the keys which unlock my thoughts and make me acquainted with myself. I run eagerly into this resounding tumult. I grasp the hands of those next to me, and take my place in the ring to suffer and to work, taught by an instinct, that so shall the dumb abyss be vocal with speech.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
