Road Race

Famous quotes containing the words road and/or race:

“Dear common flower, that grow’st beside the way,
Fringing the dusty road with harmless gold,
First pledge of blithesome May,
Which children pluck, and, full of pride, uphold,
Hight-hearted buccaneers, o’erjoyed that they
An Eldorado in the grass have found,
Which not the rich earth’s ample round
May match in wealth—thou art more dear to me
Than all the prouder summer-blooms may be.”
—James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)

“The propensity to truck, barter and exchange one thing for another ... is common to all men, and to be found in no other race of animals.”
—Adam Smith (1723–1790)
