Famous quotes containing the words marching and/or band:

    “The Saints come,
    as human as a mouth,
    with a bag of God in their backs,
    like a hunchback,
    they come,
    they come marching in.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Firm, united, let us be,
    Rallying round our Liberty;
    As a band of brothers joined,
    Peace and safety we shall find.”
    —Joseph Hopkinson (1770–1842)
