Field Armies

Famous quotes containing the words field and/or armies:

“Hardly a book of human worth, be it heaven’s own secret, is honestly placed before the reader; it is either shunned, given a Periclean funeral oration in a hundred and fifty words, or interred in the potter’s field of the newspapers’ back pages.”
—Edward Dahlberg (1900–1977)

“Would not some lightning flash of vision sear people’s consciousness into life again? What was the good of stopping the war if armies continued?”
