White Huns

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or huns:

“Sometimes a musical phrase would perfectly sum up
The mood of a moment. One of those lovelorn sonatas
For wind instruments was riding past on a solemn white horse.
Everybody wondered who the new arrival was.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)

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