Montgomery Blair High

Famous quotes containing the words montgomery, blair and/or high:

    The fates are not quite obdurate;
    They have a grim, sardonic way
    Of granting them who supplicate
    The thing they wanted yesterday.

    The Sound of battle fell upon my ear & heart all day yesterday—even after dark the cannon’s insatiate roar continued ...
    —Elizabeth Blair Lee (1818–?)

    There, do not start,
    child, nor toss about;
    only calm and high pride
    can help your hurt:
    fate tries all alike.
