Famous quotes containing the words ministers, charge, war, service and/or homes:
“This was the Eastham famous of late years for its camp- meetings, held in a grove near by, to which thousands flock from all parts of the Bay. We conjectured that the reason for the perhaps unusual, if not unhealthful development of the religious sentiment here, was the fact that a large portion of the population are women whose husbands and sons are either abroad on the sea, or else drowned, and there is nobody but they and the ministers left behind.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Your last words as you led the charge up the beach were, Okay, men, lets show em whose beach this is!”
—Paddy Chayefsky (19231981)
“Our lives laid down in war and peace may not
Be found acceptable in Heavens sight.
And that they may be is the only prayer
Worth praying. May my sacrifice
Be found acceptable in Heavens sight.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
“We too are ashes as we watch and hear
The psalm, the sorrow, and the simple praise
Of one whose promised thoughts of other days
Were such as ours, but now wholly destroyed,
The service record of his youth wiped out,
His dream dispersed by shot, must disappear.”
—Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)
“As fathers, men often feel either like guests in their own homes or clumsy bulls in china shops, deferring to their wives as the emotional experts and squelching their own wish to be fully involved.”
—Ron Taffel (20th century)
