Famous quotes containing the words trotting and/or oaks:

    It is at a fair that man can be drunk forever on liquor, love, or fights; at a fair that your front pocket can be picked by a trotting horse looking for sugar, and your hind pocket by a thief looking for his fortune.
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)

    He that depends
    Upon your favors swims with fins of lead,
    And hews down oaks with rushes.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
