White Huns

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or huns:

    “When cats run home and light is come,
    And dew is cold upon the ground,
    And the far-off stream is dumb,
    And the whirring sail goes round,
    And the whirring sail goes round;
    Alone and warming his five wits,
    The white owl in the belfry sits.”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

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