South Wall

Famous quotes containing the words south and/or wall:

    The cloud was so dark that it needed all the bright lights that could be turned upon it. But for four years there was a contagion of nobility in the land, and the best blood North and South poured itself out a libation to propitiate the deities of Truth and Justice. The great sin of slavery was washed out, but at what a cost!
    M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)

    We shall renew the battle in the plain
    Tomorrow—red with blood will Xanthus be;
    Hector and Ajax will be there again,
    Helen will come upon the wall to see.
    Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
