Famous quotes containing the word fife:
“When we are in health, all sounds fife and drum for us; we hear the notes of music in the air, or catch its echoes dying away when we awake in the dawn.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Oh beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly,
Play the Dead March as you carry me along;
Take me to the green valley, there lay the sod oer me,
For Im a young cowboy and I know Ive done wrong.”
—Unknown. As I Walked Out in the Streets of Laredo (l. 58)
