Famous quotes containing the words winter, service and/or uniform:
“Stands the Spring! heralded by its bright-clothed

—Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
“The Federal Constitution has stood the test of more than a hundred years in supplying the powers that have been needed to make the Central Government as strong as it ought to be, and with this movement toward uniform legislation and agreements between the States I do not see why the Constitution may not serve our people always.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
