Soldiers

Famous quotes containing the word soldiers:

    As soldiers we have few saving graces. Perhaps our willingness to die for what we believe in is all that matters.

    It was soldiers went marching over the rocks
    And still the birds came, came in watery flocks,
    Because it was spring and the birds had to come.
    No doubt that soldiers had to be marching
    And that drums had to be rolling, rolling, rolling.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    When soldiers have been baptized in the fire of a battle- field, they have all one rank in my eyes.
    Napoleon Bonaparte (1769–1821)
