Famous quotes containing the words military and/or honors:

    Stately as a galleon, I sail across the floor,
    Doing the military two-step, as in the days of yore.
    Joyce Grenfell (1910–1979)

    The sire then shook the honors of his head,
    And from his brows damps of oblivion shed
    Full on the filial dullness:
