Military Colors

Famous quotes containing the words military and/or colors:

“The schoolmaster is abroad! And I trust to him armed with his primer against the soldier in full military array.”

“Our frigate takes fire,
The other asks if we demand quarter?
If our colors are struck and the fighting done?
Now I laugh content for I hear the voice of my little captain,
We have not struck, he composedly cries, we have just begun our part of the fighting.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
