Famous quotes containing the word march:
“What if there’s 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 (1865–1939)

—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

The spoils of war are easily disposed of:”
