Famous quotes containing the words owen and/or chamberlain:

    Men marched asleep. Many had lost their boots
    But limped on, blood-shod. All went lame; all blind;
    Drunk with fatigue; deaf even to the hoots
    Of tired, outstripped Five-Nines that dropped behind.
    —Wilfred Owen (1893–1918)

    Billy Wilder (b. 1906)
