Riding Losing

Famous quotes containing the words riding and/or losing:

    “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)

    “Let a man learn to look for the permanent in the mutable and fleeting; let him learn to bear the disappearance of things he was wont to reverence; without losing his reverence; let him learn that he is here, not to work, but to be worked upon; and that, though abyss open under abyss, and opinion displace opinion, all are at last contained in the Eternal Cause.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
