Famous quotes containing the words campbell and/or army:

    It may be strange—yet who would change
    Time’s course to slower speeding,
    When one by one our friends have gone
    And left our bosoms bleeding?
    —Thomas Campbell (1774–1844)

    An army is maintained for a thousand days all to be used on one morning.
