Famous quotes containing the words crazy, horse and/or war:

    “A crazy man that found a cup,
    When all but dead of thirst,
    Hardly dared to wet his mouth
    Imagining, moon-accursed,
    That another mouthful
    And his beating heart would burst.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Time is a horse that runs in the heart, a horse
    Without a rider on a road at night.
    The mind sits listening and hears it pass.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “Superstition, bigotry and prejudice, ghosts though they are, cling tenaciously to life; they are shades armed with tooth and claw. They must be grappled with unceasingly, for it is a fateful part of human destiny that it is condemned to wage perpetual war against ghosts. A shade is not easily taken by the throat and destroyed.”
    —Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
