Fighting Years Tour

Famous quotes containing the words fighting, years and/or tour:

    Soldier or sailor, the fighting man is but a fiend; and the staff and body-guard of the Devil musters many a baton.

    Thou little Child, yet glorious in the might
    Of heaven-born freedom on thy being’s height,
    Why with such earnest pains dost thou provoke
    The years to bring the inevitable yoke,
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    Left Washington, September 6, on a tour through Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, and Virginia.... Absent nineteen days. Received every where heartily. The country is again one and united! I am very happy to be able to feel that the course taken has turned out so well.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
