Famous quotes containing the words rack and/or mount:
“O, let him pass. He hates him
That would upon the rack of this tough world
Stretch him out longer.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“I mount the steps and ring the bell, turning
Wearily, as one would turn to nod good-bye to Rochefoucauld,
If the street were time and he at the end of the street,
And I say, “Cousin Harriet, here is the Boston Evening Transcript.””
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
