White Huns

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or huns:

    “Kind Sir: Lost and of your same kind
    I have turned around twice with my eyes sealed
    and the wood were white and my night mind
    saw such strange happenings, untold and unreal.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “The American people is out to get the kaiser. We are bending every nerve and every energy towards that end; anybody who gets in the way of the great machine the energy and devotion of a hundred million patriots is building towards the stainless purpose of saving civilization from the Huns will be mashed like a fly. I’m surprised that a collegebred man like you hasn’t more sense. Don’t monkey with the buzzsaw.”
    —John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
