Human Corpses

Famous quotes containing the words human and/or corpses:

“the thin, long human frame
Upside down in its own strange joy,”

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.”
