Rode Quotations

I'm not limited by my gender, and I don't think anyone else should be either. Because I am the age I am and I sort of rode the crest of the first profound post-suffragette feminists, I wasn't fighting to burn my bra. Those women fought that fight just seconds before I came into womanhood.

In Montana, when we did 'Return to Lonesome Dove', we rode on the side of a hill at night in the dark; I was afraid my horse would step on one of the actors playing dead. The director said to leave it to the stunt doubles since they got paid for that.

It was very much like Norman Rockwell: small town America. We walked to school or rode our bikes, stopped at the penny candy store on the way home from school, skated on the pond.

I rode my bike to school every day from age five to age fourteen. It was a small town - you could go anywhere.

I think when I started to write 'The Mysterious Benedict Society' that I had that kind of thing in mind - the notion of having to be able to solve puzzles and riddles because enormous stakes rode upon your ability to do that.

I've been supporting Help for Heroes for many years - I actually rode in their first-ever official fundraiser back in 2008. I have witnessed the great work that Help for Heroes do to support those who have suffered life-changing injuries and illnesses, and I want to do all I can to help raise as much as possible.

I was riding my mountain bike in Colorado, and I met a dog who reminded me so much of my very first dog in the way she interacted with me, looked at me, and wagged her tail that I rode away convinced I'd just very possibly met the reincarnated version of my long lost friend.

I grew up with the Highwaymen, which was Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings and Kris Kristofferson. Mom and Dad rode rodeo, so country music was always in the house and the car. They threw in some Dolly Parton, too.

My first winner was on Legal Steps, in Ireland, at Thurles, in March 1992. I rode for Jim Bolger, and his stable jockey was Christy Roche.

I grew up riding horses since I was eight. I rode English style and competed every weekend. I had two horses, Scout and Camille, and they were my babies. It taught me a lot about responsibility and commitment. I hope horses will always be in my life.

I never liked dolls or played house. I read and wrote, climbed trees, collected rocks, rode my bike, and befriended boys, platonically.

I had a bike as a kid, and when I worked in Manhattan - I had a 10-speed - I rode from downtown to 68th and Madison for my day job. I knew about fighting traffic, but nothing about racing.

I rode a shark once. I wouldn't recommend it. It was fun, but I thought I was going to get eaten the entire time! Nothing against sharks. I love sharks. I just don't think we are meant to ride them.

So for twelve miles I rode with Sherman, and we became fast friends. He asked me all manner of questions on the way, and I found that he knew my father well, and remembered his tragic death in Salt Creek Valley.

The Egyptians saw the sun and called him Ra, the Sun God. He rode across the sky in his chariot until it was time to sleep. Copernicus and Galileo proved otherwise, and poor Ra lost his divinity.

Lord Ronald said nothing; he flung himself from the room, flung himself upon his horse and rode madly off in all directions

She was nice. She was so sweet. I rode the bus with her and I kept asking, why did he shoot her?

She got back the next morning. I should have rode with her. She was in the stall at 2 o'clock.

She broke sharp, which we hoped for and it pretty much just developed like I thought. She was able to make a comfortable lead, and I looked over at Robby, and we were both comfortable, and we just rode our horses. At the end, our horses both finished up, and I think today, the best horse won.

She rode that wave and swam a great race but it cost her energy.

She kind of got up on the guardrail and kind of rode that, which made the car go airborne. And the wheels left the road.

She killed it. You know Hannah rode really hard today and threw down. We're all stoked for her.

She just cut an edge. I don't think she was showing off. She always grabs on the jumps. It's disappointing for her, but she's young and rode great all day. She was so far in front, it's got to be hard.

Most of the staff was much younger, but she was always the first one up and the last to bed. She never rode cabs when she could walk, and she was always calling out for us to walk up the escalator instead of ride.

One of my friends who rode suggested I try it. I went to some rodeos and decided I would give it a shot.

My dad told me he always set me on stuff. He rode bulls, too.

My father, Ricardo, has been my biggest role model on and off the bike. He was a pretty good rider himself when he was younger. He got me into the sport and I really looked up to him. My older brother, Rich, was a role model in the beginning as well. We are very close as a family and we rode together all the time. My father taught us what was right and wrong. He taught us to work hard and strive to achieve our goals. He was very inspiring for me. My father really taught me that if I work hard enough, I can achieve anything. I think that is important at any age.

On our last New Zealand ride, I had a woman who rode only 80 miles, and a guy who did over 700 miles on the same trip.

I Worked in the family auto body shop, lifted weights, and rode a few Victory Sports Indoors.

I did this film with Russell Crowe called 'The Water Diviner,' which took place just after WWI. It was fascinating because the weapons between WWI and WII were very different. I had to learn how to ride horses in a battle setting. It was important that we rode a certain way.

Growing up in New York City, my car culture is minimal. I rode on the train, the bus. I walked; I rode my bike, and when I was younger, I rode my skateboard.

Gilbert had the fire in his eyes and he had it going. He just edged us on and we rode his coat tails.

I don't think she was showing off. She always grabs on the jumps. I'm disappointed for her, sure, but she's young, and she rode great all day. What can you do?

Forward the Light Brigade! Was there a man dismay'd? Not tho' the soldier knew Someone had blunder'd: Their's not to make reply, Their's not to reason why, Their's but to do and die; Into the valley of death, Rode the six hundred, Cannon to right

Greg Hill had a great game for us. We rode him to this victory. Michigan City's tough to play. They're got athletes and quickness, just like us.

He'd never even rode one, but the first time he got on one he ended up winning a championship.

Having had more than 1 million fans in attendance at the Amgen Tour of California in the last week is one of the many reasons we can declare this inaugural event a success. With such positive feedback from the cycling governing body, the cyclists themselves, the cities we rode through, and the dedicated fans, we are now committed more than ever to being even bigger and better in 2007.

Today I rode the new bike all day and we made some good progress. It was the first time we've had chance to spend a lot of time on the chassis and engine and I went quite a lot faster on it than I did last time here so that's positive. It's still a prototype machine and there are a lot of things we still need to try because it's quite a bit different to my other bike. It would have been nice to test the two bikes back to back but I'm sure we'll get a chance tomorrow.

He rode managers. He rode players. It didn't matter. He treated everyone the same way. In short, he was a miserable human being.

He rode his bike (to campus) every day. It never mattered what the weather was. He would only drive if the weather was really bad.

He's a very durable running back. He's always getting us the tough yard. The first two weeks of the season we didn't use him much. We rode him pretty hard (against Toledo) last week.

He showed a lot of talent and class that day. Lost in the Fog has a lot of speed and you can place him anywhere you want. In the stretch, he puts horses away. And when I rode him, he just was starting to rise.

He was like, 'Big G, what up? Who you walking with?' ... I said, 'Nobody. I'm just sightseeing.' He was like, 'Get in.' He was going to a party, so I rode with him, then he had his driver drop me off.

He was like, 'Big G, what up? Who you walking with?' ... I said, 'Nobody. I'm just sightseeing.' He was like, 'Get in.' He was going to a party, so I rode with him, then he had his driver drop me off.

He couldn't have rode a better race, ... She had never been a mile-and-a-quarter before. I wasn't really comfortable until five jumps from the wire.

He did everything right except win. He broke sharp and (Prado) rode him like he was supposed to. He let the horse (Keyed Entry) go on and took a shot and just couldn't get to him.

Jakob is in his best shape ever and rode a really amazing world championships. It was a shame the break didn't last all the way, because I think he could've been the new world champion. He had the legs for it today that's for sure. The course wasn't hard enough, but it turned out really exciting towards the end - especially thanks to Jakob, who truly showed class out there. When the riders were together in the end, it was in the cards for Boonen to win and he is definitely a worthy champion.

I swear, if Sweetface told me that I rode out of town ten minutes ago, I'd believe him.

I was devastated. Every 10 minutes, we might go a foot. Not a mile, a foot . And all the shelters were full. All the hotels were booked. We rode around in tears.

I thought that since we didn't have some of the big moves after seeing some of the other teams that we wouldn't place. It was the first time I had ever ridden drill. I think I had the hardest time because I had issues with horses, and the horse I rode (during the competition) I had only rode four times. The thrill of the drill, it's like now we're all addicted.

I think we've just worn him out because we rode him so hard. It's limited his mobility. He gets worn out in the games, but we have to have him in the game.

I think after the 7-2 lead we got a little lackadaisical. We kind of rode the lead and it diminished pretty quickly. Then people start seizing up when the opportunity comes. Those are the types of things where you need to take control and take some leadership, and I'll take full bore for that.

Isaiah Hunter had a tough night. We rode the horses that got us here, but some of them came up limping and lame.

I salute the winner, and Johnny rode a tremendous race. My jock rode a great race, too. I want to take care of this horse as well as I possibly can, because he gave his guts for us. They had to run to beat this horse today. I've got a real treasure in Bellamy Road.

I rode the buses in L.A. until I was in my early 30s, and there's something about driving or riding through L.A. after sundown, when the Utopian city goes into hiding and another city comes out, more Doors and less Byrds.

I rode out to the lake at 7 a.m. and one brave (cold) fellow was fishing but had no luck yet.

I rode on the London Eye, and it was just packed with people. It should do very, very well in Las Vegas.

I rode him in work on Wednesday and he felt good. He's progressing and he's a very nice horse, but the favourite looks a very good horse. I rode in the race last year and I'm looking forward to Saturday.

I rode him for a bit, then I tried to let him up to get a takedown, but he acted like he didn't want to get up. He was hanging on to me.

I rode all around Hollywood listening to Donna Summer, looking out the window - all by myself - just going, 'I'm number one!' It's a pretty extraordinary feeling.

I rode 300 miles through the forest and ate all sorts of strange food. And every time 'Torak' did something new, like swimming with killer whales or kayaking, I thought I'd better go and do it.

rode out (hurricane) Camille (in 1969) when I was 20 years old.

Susan took me shopping for a bike and helmet. We also rode together sometimes during training.

I was very surprised in the way he won last time out, because when I rode him he came from way back. He showed another dimension.

I was going fastball away and just overthrew it a little bit. It kind of rode back closer to the plate than I wanted.

I think he ran a huge race. I know Prado was in tight. I rode tight a little bit, but I don't think it bothered him, not at all. When he came out, my horse came out at the same time. But I was clear because he was right behind me. à He's an immature colt, but he's getting better and better.

I thought I rode clean and held my line, until I looked back. I am more angry that I interfered with Kelly than losing my medal.

That was in the days when everyone rode a bicycle, and the journal had a circulation of over one hundred and twenty-five thousand weekly, so my verses and illustrations became known to a fairly large public.

That was so huge. Right there, that changed the tone of the game. Momentum is a monster, and if you get it on your side, you ride it, baby. And we rode it.

I was really active as much as possible while I was allowing my bone to heal. I was in the Cooley weight room, and rode the bike and did the treadmill and did lower-body workouts every day. Right now, my ball-handling is back and it (the hand) feels really strong.

I wasn't pleased with the way we started tonight. I don't know if it was a hangover from the road trip, but in the second half, the guys came out and played much harder and did a good job. We had a hot hand with Elton Brand and we just rode it.

Mostly it would be those who rode in a particular even would hang out with those who rode in the same event.

We came out and set the tempo early and we rode it all the way through.

Three jolly gentlemen, / In coats of red, / Rode their horses / Up to bed.

Yeah were really happy. Three seconds is a bit of a bummer and I'm sure if we rode it again we could go quicker, but everyone only gets one go and I'm very happy with the boys.

We know they're a lot better team than they showed tonight. We got some momentum tonight and we rode it and were able to hold on.

You didn't really hang out because you rode the school bus. There was no place we could hang out back then.

We didn't really want to spread it that early but with a 20-point lead and the ball in Pringle's hands, I felt pretty good. We just put it on her shoulders and rode it on.

We were a little slow starting out this morning and made some mistakes that lost us. Georgia rode very well and we are rooting for the SEC now and hope they can win it all.

We are ... working for the liberation of our country. You won't find anyone in our group who rode into Iraq on an American tank or on a sectarian horse.

There certainly were days when I felt I was rode hard and put to bed wet.

There hasn't been one game where one team has taken it from the start and just rode with it. That's just playoff hockey between two evenly matched teams. We don't really expect too much different in Game 6.

We rode this horse (the trapping zone) a long time, let's keep on riding it and see how far it takes us.

We rode the hurricane out at one of the fire departments,

We rode pretty hard for about 30 or 40 kilometers, but eventually it got a bit disorganized. There were a couple of teams chasing, because (Michael) Barry was in the break and I think he was some kind of threat on the G.C. The sprint just came up on us and everybody was doing their turns at the front. I kind of timed it to come through on my turn. I wasn't sure what was going to happen, because yesterday there was a thousand dollars on the sprint. I didn't think there was that much money on the line, but I wasn't going to miss a shot.

We rode (Miller) tonight. He was superb out there. We found him, got him the ball and he was magnificent.

We rode it out. It was nothing remarkable, really. A little surreal. But there was no panic. A little emotional. We were OK. My mom was annoyed that the water was coming up, because she didn't move the car.

We rode a solid race, but we still have a lot of improvements to make. One is to build upon strokes and pick up a lot more speed - move the boat faster during the middle of the race.

We rode around the bank a few times to see how things looked. We wanted to see when there would be less people in the parking lot.

We rode after all four. I was fine. I would say it was probably a little bit tougher on the animal. It was a warm day. They need to catch their breath before they run out again.

This sets the girls up with a real shot at both the U.S. Junior Team and a World Cup berth at Lake Placid, New York. They both rode great.

We cannot shoot the ball. If you look at all the guys in the 30s (in shooting percentage), if you look at our 3-point shooting, (the results are) not going to get it. Last year, we rode the wave of great shooting. That brings passion and energy. When you're not shooting well in today's NBA, it's very deflating.

We kind of rode his coattails, ... He carried us. We went from a tie game to up 11 because he got going. Now, they hang on to him and say, 'Thanks Gil.' We should play with poise; we've got veterans now with playoff experience. And that should help us in back-to-back games. We've got a good mix of scorers and defenders. And we've got a guy who can make everybody better. When that thing got real tight tonight, it was, 'Thanks Gil.'

The pipe was the best it's been yet and I rode the best I've ridden all season. My backside fives have been giving me problems all year but I was able to put it together. I kept it clean and maintained my style and it all came together.

What's great about Bailey is he rode like he was still 25. He wasn't scared. I was impressed the way he'd go through holes with no fear. And he came into the paddock before the race well prepared. He knew exactly what was going on -- he'd handicap the horses and the jockeys.

We had the hot hand in (Brand) and we just rode it.

We chose this cause because it happened during the Tour of Spain and it was in the papers at the same time as Roberto's victory. This isn't a replica, it is the actual bike Roberto rode and so it is a real collector's piece. I hope that someone will pay in the region of 50 000 euros for it.
