Late Race

Famous quotes containing the words late and/or race:

    None will now find Cupid latent
    By this foolish antique patent.
    He came late along the waste,
    Shod like a traveller for haste.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Ye say they all have passed away,
    That noble race and brave;
    That their light canoes have vanished
    From off the crested wave;
    That, mid the forests where they roamed,
    There rings no hunters’ shout;
    But their name is on your waters,
    Ye may not wash it out.
    Lydia Huntley Sigourney (1791–1865)
