Famous quotes containing the word cry:
“And still we wear our uniforms, follow
The cracked cry of the bugles, comb and brush
Our pride and prejudice, doctor the sallow
Initial ardor, wish to keep it fresh.
Still we applaud the President’s voice and face.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
“Waking or sleeping, I see a wreck,
And hear a cry from a reeling deck!”
—John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)
