Winter Service Uniform

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

    “The winter evening settles down
    With smell of steaks in passageways.
    Six o’clock.
    The burnt-out ends of smoky days.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “You had to face your ends when young
    ‘Twas wine or women, or some curse
    But never made a poorer song
    That you might have a heavier purse,
    Nor gave loud service to a cause
    That you might have a troop of friends.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “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)
