Famous quotes containing the words strike and/or command:

    “Is this then a touch? quivering me to a new identity,
    Flames and ether making a rush for my veins,
    Treacherous tip of me reaching and crowding to help them,
    My flesh and blood playing out lightning to strike what is hardly
    different from myself,
    On all sides prurient provokers stiffening my limbs,”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    “I, who should command a regiment,
    Do amble amiably here, O God,
    One of the neat ones in your awkward squad.”
    —Norman Cameron (b. 1905)
