Archery at The 1920 Summer Olympics – Team Moving Bird

Famous quotes containing the words summer, team, moving and/or bird:

    Over the winter glaciers,
    I see the summer glow,
    And, through the wild-piled snowdrift,
    The warm rosebuds below.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Is my team ploughing,
    That I was used to drive
    And hear the harness jingle
    When I was man alive?
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)

    Consider a man riding a bicycle. Whoever he is, we can say three things about him. We know he got on the bicycle and started to move. We know that at some point he will stop and get off. Most important of all, we know that if at any point between the beginning and the end of his journey he stops moving and does not get off the bicycle he will fall off it. That is a metaphor for the journey through life of any living thing, and I think of any society of living things.
    William Golding (b. 1911)

    And the one bird singing alone to his nest,
    And the one star over the tower.
    I thought of our little quarrels and strife,
    And the letter that brought me back my ring;
    And it all seem’d then, in the waste of life,
    “Owen” “Meredith” (1831–1891)
