Mount Pleasant Road

Famous quotes containing the words mount, pleasant and/or road:

    “I mount the steps and ring the bell, turning

    And I say, “Cousin Harriet, here is the Boston Evening Transcript.””
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “How pleasant is Saturday night,
    When I’ve tried all the week to be good,
    And not spoke a word that was bad,
    And obliged everyone that I could.”
    —Nancy Sproat (1766–1827)

    “O Russia! O my wife! Our long and narrow Road lies clear though distressed.
    Our road with an old Tatar freedom’s arrow Has deeply pierced our breast.”
