Largest Cavalry Charge

Famous quotes containing the words largest, cavalry and/or charge:

“Because it is in the nature of things that they become extreme, we have passed down from manliness to cruelty.

But gallanter I know,
Who charge within the bosom
The Cavalry of Woe.”

“I do the wrong, and first begin to brawl.
The secret mischiefs that I set abroach
I lay unto the grievous charge of others.”
