Famous quotes containing the words roe and/or head:
“All day long in unrest,
To and fro do I move,
The very soul within my breast
Is wasted for you, love!”
—Owen Roe MacWard (d. 1849)
“The head must bow, and the back will have to bend,
Wherever the darkey may go;
A few more days, and the trouble all will end,
In the field where the sugar-canes grow.
A few more days for to tote the weary load,—
No matter, ‘t will never be light;
A few more days till we totter on the road:—
Then my old Kentucky home, good-night!”
—Stephen Collins Foster (1826–1884)
