Famous quotes containing the words mounting and/or mark:
“Grim-visaged War hath smoothed his wrinkled front;
And now, instead of mounting barbed steeds
To fright the souls of fearful adversaries,
He capers nimbly in a lady’s chamber
To the lascivious pleasing of a lute.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“His art is eccentricity, his aim
How not to hit the mark he seems to aim at,”
—Robert Francis (b. 1901)
