Human Corpses

Famous quotes containing the words human and/or corpses:

“All human excellence is but comparative. There may be persons who excel us, as much as we fancy we excel the meanest.”

“Swift blazing flag of the regiment,
Eagle with crest of red and gold,
These men were born to drill and die.
Point for them the virtue of slaughter,
Make plain to them the excellence of killing
And a field where a thousand corpses lie.”
—Stephen Crane (1871–1900)
