Famous quotes containing the word march:

    “The blue and the gray. Let us march together beneath the star- spangled banner.”
    —Laurence Stallings (1894–1968)

    “Britannia needs no bulwarks,
    No towers along the steep;
    Her march is o’er the mountain-waves,
    Her home is on the deep.”
    —Thomas Campbell (1774–1844)

    “The march interrupted the light afternoon.
    Cars stopped dead, children began to run,
    As out of the street-shadow into the sun
    Discipline strode....”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
