Famous quotes containing the words december, november and/or war:
“Work—work—work,
In the dull December light,
And work—work—work,
When the weather is warm and bright—
While underneath the eaves
The brooding swallows cling
As if to show me their sunny backs
And twit me with the spring.”
—Thomas Hood (1799–1845)
“It was always November there.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“A war undertaken without sufficient monies has but a wisp of force. Coins are the very sinews of battles.”
