Guard Regiment

Famous quotes containing the words guard and/or regiment:

    I loved. And a man will guard when he loves.
    Their white-gowned democracy was my fair lady.
    With her knife lying cold, straight, in the softness of her sweet-flowing sleeve.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    We had an inspection today of the brigade. The Twenty-third was pronounced the crack regiment in appearance, ... [but] I could see only six to ten in a company of the old men. They all smiled as I rode by. But as I passed away I couldn’t help dropping a few natural tears. I felt as I did when I saw them mustered in at Camp Chase.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
