Red Cross Societies

Famous quotes containing the words red, cross and/or societies:

    Swift blazing flag of the regiment,
    Eagle with crest of red and gold,
    These men were born to drill and die.
    Point for them the virtue of slaughter,
    Make plain to them the excellence of killing
    And a field where a thousand corpses lie.
    Stephen Crane (1871–1900)

    To be where little cable cars climb halfway to the stars.
    —Douglass Cross (b. 1920)

    In countries where associations are free, secret societies are unknown. In America there are factions, but no conspiracies.
