Famous quotes containing the words soldier and/or ranks:
“Methinks it would be some advantage to philosophy if men were named merely in the gross, as they are known. It would be necessary only to know the genus and perhaps the race or variety, to know the individual.

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“By the flow of the inland river,

Asleep are the ranks of the dead:—”
—Francis Miles Finch (1827–1907)
