Famous quotes containing the words powder and/or blue:

    My little ‘bout-town gal has gone
    ‘Bout town with powder and blue dye
    On her pale lids....
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    So here they are, the dog-faced soldiers, the regulars, the fifty-cents-a-day professionals riding the outposts of the nation, from Fort Reno to Fort Apache, from Sheridan to Stark. They were all the same. Men in dirty-shirt blue and only a cold page in the history books to mark their passing. But wherever they rode and whatever they fought for, that place became the United States.
    Frank S. Nugent (1908–1965)
