Famous quotes containing the words top, american, british and/or hit:

    “There is Lowell, who’s striving Parnassus to climb
    With a whole bale of isms tied together with rhyme,
    He might get on alone, spite of brambles and boulders,
    But he can’t with that bundle he has on his shoulders,
    The top of the hill he will ne’er come nigh reaching
    Till he learns the distinction ‘twixt singing and preaching;
    James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)

    We ask not pardon for ourselves but justice for all American women.
    Alison Low Turnbull Hopkins (1880–1951)

    If this creature is a murderer, then so are we all. This snake has killed one British soldier; we have killed many. This is not murder, gentlemen. This is war.
    —Administration in the State of Sout, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    Major Bagley: So they really got the Arizona.
    Captain Quincannon: Yes, sir. Hickham Field was hit just as bad as Pearl Harbor, lot of fifth column work.
    Major Bagley: I’ve studied all the wars in history, gentlemen, and I’ve never come across any dirty treachery like that.
    Dudley Nichols (1895–1960)
