Famous quotes containing the words white and/or huns:

“As a bathtub lined with white porcelain,
When the hot water gives out or goes tepid,
So is the slow cooling of our chivalrous passion,
O my much praised but-not-altogether-satisfactory lady.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

“Frogs are slightly better than Huns or Wops, but abroad is unutterably bloody and foreigners are fiends.”
