Famous quotes containing the words refugee and/or camp:
“The refugee uncertain at the door
You make at home; deftly you steady
The drunk clambering on his undulant floor.”

Then bloody swords and armor should not be;
No drum nor trumpet peaceful sleeps should move,
Unless alarm came from the camp of love.”
