Famous quotes containing the words east and/or riding:
“I know no East or West, North or South, when it comes to my class fighting the battle for justice. If it is my fortune to live to see the industrial chain broken from every workingman’s child in America, and if then there is one black child in Africa in bondage, there shall I go.”
—Mother Jones (1830–1930)
“The wanton Troopers riding by
Have shot my Fawn and it will die.
Ungentle men! They cannot thrive
To kill thee. Thou ne’er didst alive
Them any harm: alas, nor could
Thy death yet do them any good.”
—Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
