Star Spangled War

Famous quotes containing the words star, spangled and/or war:

    The Spacious Firmament on high,
    With all the blue Ethereal Sky,
    And spangled Heav’ns, a Shining Frame,
    Their great Original proclaim:
    Th’ unwearied Sun, from day to day,
    Does his Creator’s Pow’r display,
    And publishes to every Land
    The Work of an Almighty Hand.

    One must know that war is common, justice is strife, and everything happens according to strife and necessity.
