Wounded Men

Famous quotes containing the words wounded and/or men:

    My business is stanching blood and feeding fainting men; my post the open field between the bullet and the hospital. I sometimes discuss the application of a compress or a wisp of hay under a broken limb, but not the bearing and merits of a political movement. I make gruel—not speeches; I write letters home for wounded soldiers, not political addresses.
    Clara Barton (1821–1912)

    Gabriel will come from the water
    With a fish-tail, and talk
    Of wonders that have happened
    On wet roads where men walk....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
