Yard Field Goal

Famous quotes containing the words yard, field and/or goal:

    “He slipped his hand and ran away!
    He hadn’t gone a yard when—Bang!
    With open jaws, a lion sprang,
    And hungrily began to eat
    The boy: beginning at his feet.”
    —Hilaire Belloc (1870–1953)

    “The little toy dog is covered with dust,
    But sturdy and stanch he stands;
    And the little toy soldier is red with rust,
    And the musket moulds in his hands.
    Time was when the little toy dog was new,
    And the soldier was passing fair;
    And that was the time when our Little Boy Blue
    Kissed them and put them there.”
    —Eugene Field (1850–1895)

    “Oh yet we trust that somehow good
    Will be the final goal of ill!”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
