Imperial Armour Volume

Famous quotes containing the words imperial, armour and/or volume:

    —Winston Churchill (1874–1965)

    “Saint, do you weep? I hear amid the thunder
    The Fenian horses; armour torn asunder;
    Laughter and cries. The armies clash and shock,
    And now the daylight-darkening ravens flock.
    Cease, cease, O mournful, laughing Fenian horn!”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “There is a note in the front of the volume saying that no public reading ... may be given without first getting the author’s permission. It ought to be made much more difficult to do than that.”
    —Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
