Red Cross Societies

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

    I am so tired of being a bachelor
    I could give all my heart to that Red Moll
    That had but the one eye.

    I’d take off all my clothes
    & cross the damp cold lawn & down the bluff
    into the terrible water & walk forever
    under it out toward the island.
    John Berryman (1914–1972)

    Modern equalitarian societies ... whether democratic or authoritarian in their political forms, always base themselves on the claim that they are making life happier.... Happiness thus becomes the chief political issue—in a sense, the only political issue—and for that reason it can never be treated as an issue at all.
    Robert Warshow (1917–1955)
