Famous quotes containing the word riding:

    True Thomas lay on Huntlie bank;
    A ferlie he spied wi’ his e’e;
    And there he saw a lady bright,
    Come riding down by the Eildon Tree.
    Unknown. Thomas the Rhymer (l. 1–4)

    I was at work that morning. Someone came riding like mad
    Over the bridge and up the road—Farmer Rouf’s little lad.
    Bareback he rode; he had no hat; he hardly stopped to say,
    “Morgan’s men are coming, Frau, they’re galloping on this way.
    Constance Fenimore Woolson (1840–1894)

    Commuter—one who spends his life
    In riding to and from his wife;
    A man who shaves and takes a train,
    And then rides back to shave again.
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)
