Famous quotes containing the words long, yellow and/or road:

    My absence doth neglect no great design
    Which by my presence might have been concluded.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    where laborers feed their dirty
    glistening torsos sandwiches
    and Coca-Cola, with yellow helmets
    on. They protect them from falling
    bricks, I guess.
    Frank O’Hara (1926–1966)

I almost doubted if the lake would be there,—the self-same lake,—preserve its form and identity, when the shores should be cleared and settled; as if these lakes and streams which explorers report never awaited the advent of the citizen.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
