Winter Service Uniform

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

    And now the winter sea:
    Within her hollow rind
    What sleek facility
    Of sea-conceited scop
    To plumb the nether mind!
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    In public buildings set aside for the care and maintenance of the goods of the middle ages, a staff of civil service art attendants praise all the dead, irrelevant scribblings and scrawlings that, at best, have only historical interest for idiots and layabouts.
    George Grosz (1893–1959)

    He may be a very nice man. But I haven’t got the time to figure that out. All I know is, he’s got a uniform and a gun and I have to relate to him that way. That’s the only way to relate to him because one of us may have to die.
    James Baldwin (1924–1987)
