Ranked Firm

Famous quotes containing the words ranked and/or firm:

“The trumpets sound, the banners fly,
The glittering spears are ranked ready;
The shouts o’ war are heard afar,
The battle closes thick and bloody;
But it’s no the roar o’ sea or shore
Wad mak me langer wish to tarry;
Nor shout o’ war that’s heard afar,
Its leaving thee, my bonnie Mary.”
—Robert Burns (1759–1796)

“If a person goes to his job with a firm determination to give of himself the best of which he is capable, that job—no matter what it is—takes on dignity and importance.”
—Hortense Odlum (1892–?)
