Famous quotes containing the word front:

    “my face I don’t mind it,
    Because I’m behind it—
    ‘Tis the folks in the front that I jar.”
    —Anthony Euwer (1877–1955)

    “No matter how vast, how total, the failure of man here on earth, the work of man will be resumed elsewhere. War leaders talk of resuming operations on this front and that, but man’s front embraces the whole universe.”
