Red White

Famous quotes containing the words red and/or white:

“Revolution? Unscrew the flag-staff, wrap the bunting in the oil covers, and put the thing in the clothes-chest. Let the old lady bring you your house-slippers and untie your fiery red necktie. You always make revolutions with your mugs, your republic—nothing but an industrial accident.”
—Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)

“My age fallen away like white swaddling
Floats in the middle distance, becomes
An inhabited cloud.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
