Regiment Sets

Famous quotes containing the words regiment and/or sets:

“We had an inspection today of the brigade. The Twenty-third was pronounced the crack regiment in appearance, ... [but] I could see only six to ten in a company of the old men.

—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

“There is a small steam engine in his brain which not only sets the cerebral mass in motion, but keeps the owner in hot water.”
