Jump Race

Famous quotes containing the words jump and/or race:

    If it were done when ‘tis done, then ‘twere well
    It were done quickly. If th’ assassination
    Could trammel up the consequence, and catch
    With his surcease success—that but this blow
    Might be the be-all and the end-all!—here,
    But here, upon this bank and shoal of time,
    We’d jump the life to come.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    If this bureau had a prayer for use around horse parks, it would go something like this: Lead us not among bleeding-hearts to whom horses are cute or sweet or adorable, and deliver us from horse-lovers. Amen.... With that established, let’s talk about the death of Seabiscuit the other night. It isn’t mawkish to say, there was a racehorse, a horse that gave race fans as much pleasure as any that ever lived and one that will be remembered as long and as warmly.
    Walter Wellesley (Red)
