Lord Graves

Famous quotes containing the words lord and/or graves:

    ... there was one of two things I had a right to, liberty, or death; if I could not have one, I would take de oder; for no man should take me alive; I should fight for my liberty as long as my strength lasted, and when de time came for me to go, de Lord would let dem take me.
    Harriet Tubman (c. 1820–1913)

    War was return of earth to ugly earth,
    War was foundering of sublimities,
    Extinction of each happy art and faith
    By which the world had still kept head in air.
    —Robert Graves (1895–1985)
