Famous quotes containing the words british, army, ranks and/or rank:

    “His work was that curious mixture of bad painting and good intentions that always entitles a man to be called a representative British artist.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    “Man is the end of nature; nothing so easily organizes itself in every part of the universe as he; no moss, no lichen is so easily born; and he takes along with him and puts out from himself the whole apparatus of society and condition extempore, as an army encamps in a desert, and where all was just now blowing sand, creates a white city in an hour, a government, a market, a place for feasting, for conversation, and for love.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “It has lately been drawn to your correspondent’s attention that, at social gatherings, she is not the human magnet she would be. Indeed, it turns out that as a source of entertainment, conviviality, and good fun, she ranks somewhere between a sprig of parsley and a single ice- skate. It would appear, from the actions of the assembled guests, that she is about as hot company as a night nurse.”
    —Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)

    “Pukka sahib or rank outsider—gentleman or bounder—and it’s accent, accent, all the way.”
    —Christina Stead (1902–1983)
