Lightning Lad

Famous quotes containing the words lightning and/or lad:

    We saw the lightning and that was the guns; and then we heard the thunder and that was the big guns; and then we heard the rain falling and that was the blood falling; and when we came to get in the crops, it was dead men that we reaped.
    Harriet Tubman (1821–1913)

    Halt by the headstone naming
    The heart no longer stirred,
    And say the lad that loved you
    Was one that kept his word.
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)
