Famous quotes containing the words motor and/or rifle:

“What shall we do with country quiet now?
A motor drones insanely in the blue
Like a bad bird in a dream.”

Betweeen his two eternities,
That of race and that of soul,
And ancient Ireland knew it all.
Whether man die in his bed
Or the rifle knocks him dead,”
