General Release

Famous quotes containing the words general and/or release:

    We have left undone those things which we ought to have done; and we have done those things which we ought not to have done.
    Morning Prayer, General Confession, Book of Common Prayer (1662)

    The steel decks rock with the lightning shock, and shake with the
    great recoil,
    And the sea grows red with the blood of the dead and reaches for his spoil—
    But not till the foe has gone below or turns his prow and runs,
    Shall the voice of peace bring sweet release to the men behind the
    guns!
    John Jerome Rooney (1866–1934)
