Wounded Men

Famous quotes containing the words wounded and/or men:

    “But the dark changed to red, and torches shone,
    And deafening music shook the leaves; a troop
    Shouldered a litter with a wounded man,
    Or smote upon the string and to the sound
    Sang of the beast that gave the fatal wound.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “There are men in the village of Erith
    Whom nobody seeth or heareth,
    And there looms, on the marge
    Of the river, a barge
    That nobody roweth or steereth.”
    —Unknown. Erith, on the Thames (l. 1–5)
