Riding Mechanic

Famous quotes containing the words riding and/or mechanic:

    “Deep with the first dead lies London’s daughter,
    Robed in the long friends,
    The grains beyond age, the dark veins of her mother,
    Secret by the unmourning water
    Of the riding Thames.
    After the first death, there is no other.”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    A world without a meaning, and had room,
    Alone amid magnificence and doom,
    To build himself an airy monument”
    —Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)
