Light Cavalry Division

Famous quotes containing the words light, cavalry and/or division:

    “The light was what it was all about:
    I would not go in till the light went out;
    It would not go out till I came in.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “To fight aloud is very brave,
    But gallanter I know,
    Who charge within the bosom
    The Cavalry of Woe.”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    “Slow, slow, fresh fount, keep time with my salt tears;
    Yet slower yet, oh faintly gentle springs:
    List to the heavy part the music bears,
    “Woe weeps out her division when she sings.”
    Droop herbs and flowers;
    Fall grief in showers;
    “Our beauties are not ours”:
    Oh, I could still,
    Like melting snow upon some craggy hill,
    Drop, drop, drop, drop,
    Since nature’s pride is, now, a withered daffodil.”
    —Ben Jonson (1572–1637)
