Famous quotes containing the words horse and/or finish:

my horse my hound
what will I do
when you are fallen”

“An accurate charting of the American woman’s progress through history might look more like a corkscrew tilted slightly to one side, its loops inching closer to the line of freedom with the passage of time—but like a mathematical curve approaching infinity, never touching its goal. . . .
