Secret Scouts

Famous quotes containing the words secret and/or scouts:

    The vanity of being known to be trusted with a secret is generally one of the chief motives to disclose it.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    it pleaseth me when I see through the meadows
    The tents and pavilions set up, and great joy have I
    When I see o’er the campana knights armed and horses arrayed.

    And it pleaseth me when the scouts set in flight the folk with
    their goods;
    And it pleaseth me when I see coming together after them an host of
    armed men.
    Bertrans De Born (fl. 12th century)
