Italian Flag

Famous quotes containing the words italian and/or flag:

    “If the study of his images
    Is the study of man, this image of Saturday,
    This Italian symbol, this Southern landscape, is like
    A waking, as in images we awake,
    Within the very object that we seek,
    Participants of its being.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Bowed with her fourscore years and ten;

    Bravest of all in Frederick town,
    She took up the flag the men hauled down;”
    —John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)
