Famous quotes containing the words black and/or troops:
“A body would think that your heart was as black as your face. People thinks now that sweeps is black all through instead of black all over.”

“But, where the road runs near the stream,
Oft through the trees they catch a glance
Of passing troops in the sun’s beam—
Pennon, and plume, and flashing lance!
Forth to the world those soldiers fare,
To life, to cities, and to war!”
—Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
