Winter Service Uniform

Famous quotes containing the words winter, service and/or uniform:

    “O Time and Change!—with hair as gray
    As was my sire’s that winter day,
    How strange it seems, with so much gone
    Of life and love, to still live on!
    Ah, brother! only I and thou
    Are left of all that circle now,—
    The dear home faces whereupon
    That fitful firelight paled and shone.”
    —John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)

    “The Service without Hope
    Is tenderest, I think—
    ...
    There is no Diligence like that
    That knows not an Until—”
    —Emily Dickinson (1831–1886)

    “An accent mark, perhaps, instead of a whole western accent—a point of punctuation rather than a uniform twang. That is how it should be worn: as a quiet point of character reference, an apt phrase of sartorial allusion—macho, sotto voce.”
    —Phil Patton (b. 1953)
