Regimental Language Polish

Famous quotes containing the words language and/or polish:

    ““What may this mean? Language of Man pronounced
    By tongue of brute, and human sense expressed!
    The first at least of these I thought denied
    To beasts, whom God on their creation-day
    Created mute to all articulate sound;
    The latter I demur, for in their looks
    Much reason, and in their actions, oft appears.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “‘Then I polish all the silver, which a supper-table lacquers;
    Then I write the pretty mottoes which you find inside the
    crackers’—”
    —Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)
