Famous quotes containing the words light, horse and/or troops:
“While the light burning within may have been divine, the outer case of the lamp was assuredly cheap enough. Whitman was, from first to last, a boorish, awkward poseur.”
—Rebecca Harding Davis (18311910)
“When a friend calls to me from the road
And slows his horse to a meaning walk,
I dont stand still and look around
On all the hills I havent hoed....”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
“But, where the road runs near the stream,
Oft through the trees they catch a glance
Of passing troops in the suns beam
Pennon, and plume, and flashing lance!
Forth to the world those soldiers fare,
To life, to cities, and to war!”
—Matthew Arnold (18221888)
