Band/people

Famous quotes containing the words band and/or people:

    And the heavy night hung dark
    The hills and waters o’er,
    When a band of exiles moored their bark
    On the wild New England shore.
    Felicia Dorothea Hemans (1783–1835)

    I don’t feel sure about doing good in any way now; everything seems like going on a mission to a people whose language I don’t know.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
