British Bombers Strike

Famous quotes containing the words british, bombers and/or strike:

    I am actually what my age and my upbringing have made me—a bourgeois who adheres to the British constitution, adheres to it rather than supports it, and the fact that this isn’t dignified doesn’t worry me.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    In bombers named for girls, we burned
    The cities we had learned about in school—
    Till our lives wore out; our bodies lay among
    The people we had killed and never seen.
    Randall Jarrell (1914–1965)

    This Pardoner hadde heer as yelow as wex,
    But smothe it heeng as dooth a strike of flex.
    Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)
