Lot Street

Famous quotes containing the words lot and/or street:

    “What generous beliefs console
    The brave whom Fate denies the goal!
    If others reach it, is content:
    To Heaven’s high will his will is bent.
    Firm on his heart relied,
    What lot soe’er betide,
    Work of his hand
    He nor repents nor grieves,
    Pleads for itself the fact,
    As unrepenting Nature leaves
    Her every act.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Anger becomes limiting, restricting. You can’t see through it. While anger is there, look at that, too. But after a while, you have to look at something else.”
    —Thylias Moss, African American poet. As quoted in the Wall Street Journal (May 12, 1994)
