Famous quotes containing the word march:
“What if theres nothing up there at the top?
Where are the captains that govern mankind?
What tears down a tree that has nothing within it?
A blast of wind, O a marching wind,
March wind, and any old tune,
March march and how does it run.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“On a late-winter evening in 1983, while driving through fog along the Maine coast, recollections of old campfires began to drift into the March mist, and I thought of the Abnaki Indians of the Algonquin tribe who dwelt near Bangor a thousand years ago.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“Take some more tea, the March Hare said to Alice, very earnestly.
Ive had nothing yet, Alice replied in an offended tone: so I cant take more.
You mean you cant take less, said the Hatter: its very easy to take more than nothing.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (18321898)
