Light Troops

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or troops:

    “The splendor falls on castle walls
    And snowy summits old in story;
    The long light shakes across the lakes,
    And the wild cataract leaps in glory.
    Blow, bugle, blow, set the wild echoes flying,
    Blow, bugle; answer, echoes, dying, dying, dying.”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    “A general is just as good or just as bad as the troops under his command make him.”
