Procession/history

Famous quotes containing the words procession and/or history:

    By the bivouac’s fitful flame,
    A procession winding around me, solemn and sweet and slow
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    I saw the Arab map.
    It resembled a mare shuffling on,
    dragging its history like saddlebags,
    nearing its tomb and the pitch of hell.
    Adonis [Ali Ahmed Said] (b. 1930)
