Famous quotes containing the words camp and/or hope:

    If all would lead their lives in love like me,
    Then bloody swords and armor should not be;
    No drum nor trumpet peaceful sleeps should move,
    Unless alarm came from the camp of love.
    Thomas Campion (1567–1620)

    Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart.
    Oscar Hammerstein II (1895–1960)
