Famous quotes containing the words march and/or pride:
“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.”

“Lord, what a thoughtless wretch was I,
To mourn, and murmur and repine,
To see the wicked placed on high,
In pride and robes of honor shine.
But oh, their end, their dreadful end,
Thy sanctuary taught me so,
On slippry rocks I see them stand,
And fiery billows roll below.”
—Isaac Watts (16741748)
