Flank Side

Famous quotes containing the words flank and/or side:

“There’s an enduring American compulsion to be on the side of the angels. Expediency alone has never been an adequate American reason for doing anything. When actions are judged, they go before the bar of God, where Mom and the Flag closely flank His presence.”
—Jonathan Raban (b. 1942)

“Like man and wife who nightly keep
Inconsequent debate in sleep
As they dream side by side.”
